No. You are not required to provide your SDS to anyone other than your customers upon request. We provide the information to anyone who asks as a marketing benefit and as a way to reduce your client's total cost of ownership for acquiring and maintaining the product/s you are providing.
The ChemAlert Colour Rating system provides you with a visual indication of the hazard level a chemical represents for normal use.

Once an SDS is in the ChemAlert Library, RMT will take all reasonable measures to ensure that its currency is maintained. Each updated SDS is reviewed and validated by our qualified scientific team. There are five ways we ensure the ChemAlert Library is the most current and up to date library of Safety Data Sheets in market:
- We automate the acquisition of updated Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) from the suppliers that publish them on their website.
- Any SDS nearing five years since last review is identified, and our dedicated team of SDS Administrators will then attempt to source an updated SDS directly from the manufacturer by email or phone. If the manufacturer does not yet have an update, they will be asked to proactively notify RMT when it is available.
- We have a strong relationship with many suppliers who proactively send us their Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and value the independent review of our RMT scientists perform, advising them on improvements to the Safety Data Sheet.
- We author SDSs on behalf of thousands of manufacturers and in the process of updating their SDS documents, ChemAlert users get instant updates.
- Client feedback. If you receive an SDS that is more current than the one on ChemAlert, please forward it to our Support team by email or through the UPLOAD functionality in ChemAlert on the Product Details screen (Reports/Labels > Manufacturer SDS > Enquiry)

Yes, in order to prepare a regulatory-compliant SDS we need to know the exact formulation (as much as possible). We will sign a non-disclosure agreement if required, and can advise what ingredients do not need to be disclosed on the SDS and/or ideal ingredient ranges to ensure the most appropriate classifications are displayed.
