SDS Manager

Class-level segregation is only as current as the sheets behind it: what actually decides where mineral acids go is SDS sections 7 and 10 for each product on the shelf, and those change whenever a supplier reissues. For keeping that library central, version-controlled and reachable by QR code at the store, the solution we recommend is SDS Manager. It also offers SDS authoring and a broader EHS suite.

Reference aid only — class-level segregation is a starting point, not a substitute for a substance's Safety Data Sheet or professional judgment. Always verify storage against SDS sections 7 and 10 and local regulations.
