Got an overseas Safety Data Sheet?
Let's get it ready for New Zealand.
Importing chemicals or hazardous products? We review existing Safety Data Sheets and help update the information needed for New Zealand workplaces and suppliers.
Making SDS compliance easier
Already have an SDS from your supplier?
That's a good place to start. Documents prepared for other countries may be missing New Zealand supplier details, local regulatory information or relevant emergency contacts. We can review what you have, identify the gaps and advise on the next steps.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about SDS compliance?
Can I use an SDS from another country in New Zealand?
Possibly, but it needs to meet the applicable New Zealand requirements. Overseas SDS documents should be checked rather than assumed to be suitable.
Do I need a new SDS or can my existing one be updated?
It depends on the quality and completeness of the existing document. In many cases an update is possible, but we need to review it first.
What information do you need to provide a quote?
Ideally, send the existing SDS, product name, intended use and the number of products. We may need additional technical information from the manufacturer.
Can you guarantee compliance without manufacturer information?
No. Accurate SDS information depends on reliable product composition, classification and supporting technical data. We'll explain if anything important is missing.
Do you help with dangerous goods transport information too?
Yes. We can review transport details as part of the SDS assessment and assist with separate dangerous goods shipping requirements where needed.
