ESL Bureau Services
For companies who handle hazardous materials and have legal obligations but who may not have or may not need the resources necessary to produce compliant data sheets in house, the ESL Bureau Service offers the preparation of fully compliant safety data sheets for the UK, Europe and other countries.
Check
Service (C3)
Many companies issue fully compliant safety data sheets but there are also large numbers of non-compliant sheets in circulation, particularly amongst those originating from outside the EU. Inaccurate safety data sheets can lead to a company being held responsible for consequential ill-health and injuries to staff or to customers. The CHECK SERVICE provides a fast and low cost way by which companies can determine the status of their safety data sheets and decide whether
additional information, or even, re-drafting is necessary.
Under the service it will firstly be determined whether the materials concerned falls within the scope of the UK and European Regulations and if so the safety data sheet will be assessed against the PRINCIPAL requirements for CHIP/CLP compliance in accordance with the terms and conditions of the CHECK SERVICE (please ask for a copy if required). The results will be presented as report confirming compliance or indicating why the safety data sheet does not comply.
Product Classification
for Supply and Transport
It is ESL’s standard practice to sign a confidentiality agreement with a customer before receiving details of a product formulation. Every customer is encouraged to supply details of hazardous constituents with percentages, quantity likely to be supplied, likely use and as much physical, chemical, toxicological and ecological data as possible. Single substances or mixtures are then classified in accordance with the appropriate legal requirements by ESL’s experienced chemists, scientists and other professionals.

The safety data sheets are generated in colour, are clear and comprehensive, and can be supplied in the customer’s preferred format as hard copy, on CD-ROM, or by e-mail in PDF or Word format.
Maintenance Service
For customers subscribing by signing an agreement with ESL (please ask for details if required), copies of safety data sheets supplied to them will be archived and automatically reviewed in the light of changes in legislation or to the information available on the materials concerned. Customers will be advised of any significant changes and invited to order updated sheets for 50% of the initial charge and with no setting up charge. (It should be noted that there is a legal obligation on anyone supplying a safety data sheet for a hazardous material to retain the information and to advise customers of any significant changes).
