About MSDSs
Chemical manufacturers supply current Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) with
shipments of hazardous chemicals to new customers. They also provide MSDSs with
the first shipment of a hazardous chemical to a customer after an MSDS has been
updated. MSDSs provide the safety information you need to store, handle, transport,
and dispose of the chemicals safely.
Each time you receive a new MSDS packaged with a hazardous chemical, be sure to
replace the appropriate MSDS in your files.
