Steps for the creation of an MSDS for a preparation with ChemGes

Entering of all ingredients. This can be done manually or with a transfer program.
The program calculates automatically Hazards, Risk- and Safety phrases, and the transport classification for land, sea and air.
The program estimates the physical values from the characteristics of the ingredients.
You press a key, and the program calculates within seconds an MSDS.

Provided that the program has all ingredients in its database, and that the system is set up in the right way, the creation of an MSDS takes only a few minutes. Of course one should review the MSDS, but a user can enter own rules for the selection of the phrases. So it should not be necessary very often to make manual alterations.
