It is often that we come across useful daily objects that are actually harmful to our health. They can be toxic and inflammable causing damage to us. So it is very much necessary to keep a check and maintain full precaution while dealing with these objects. The best way to keep ourselves safe from these harmful toxic items is to thoroughly go through the safety data sheets that come with the packaging. Yes, these papers do have a lot of valuable information as to how to use the goods in the safest way.

1. Be Safe with Safety Data Sheet from EU REACH

2. It is often that we come across useful daily objects that are actually harmful to our health. They
can be toxic and inflammable causing damage to us. So it is very much necessary to keep a
check and maintain full precaution while dealing with these objects. The best way to keep
ourselves safe from these harmful toxic items is to thoroughly go through the safety data sheets
that come with the packaging. Yes, these papers do have a lot of valuable information as to how
to use the goods in the safest way.
What are these Datasheets?
In our day to day life, we have to buy a whole lot of things to make our existence easy. Have a
made a close observation of the things that we use. Say suppose the various plastic and toxic
materials that we use to store our food and for other preservatives. Do you how harmful it can
prove if the materials release these toxic chemicals that they are made up of? These toxic
chemicals can get released under extremes of temperature or pressure and can easily get mixed
up in the stored food. Can you imagine the end result? Just think of your little ones. All those
colorful toys that they are so fond of are actually models of poison in their hands. All these toys
are made of harmful chemicals which if ever inhaled of swallowed can lead to severe
circumstances. In order to regulate this thing, the safety data sheets came into use. These are
nothing but precautionary indicators of these harmful toxic materials.

3. How effective are these Datasheets?
These safety data sheets have become a great tool for the producers to make the consumers
aware of the products that they are going to use. These datasheets have been accepted in EU. The
EU REACH Safety Data Sheets provides its users all the necessary information of the chemicals
that have been used in manufacturing a product. So when does these safety data sheets become
necessary? Is it given for any amount of chemical or is there any permit limit? Let us find out in
the following extract.
When do you need to supply these sheets?
The producers need to be very careful when they sell harmful and toxic chemicals in the market.
They have to abide by the EU rules and regulations and hence the requirements of the REACH
SDS have to be fulfilled. They can be categorized as given below:
 A substance or mixture that the authority has declared as hazardous, or SVHC (Substance
of very high concern).
 A mixture which is in normal state not hazardous but a component of the mixture poses
life threat to human.

4. Now it is not a mandate to supply EU REACH Safety Data Sheets along with each and every
chemical that is on sale. Because all chemicals are not toxic or harmful to human, you can give
the SDS a skip for these, but then again it is really helpful and a good habit to supply the basic
information about the chemicals in a substance. So be thorough with the SDS and have a safe
life.
