MSDS, Product and Training Information

Material Safety Data Sheets are completed in compliance with all federal and state standards. Required reference sources utilized include, but are not limited to, OSHA, IARC, NTP, and ACGIH. In addition, referenced sources such as Sax's Hazardous Industrial Chemicals, the Registry of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances, the Hazardous Chemical Data Book, and others are consulted. We also work closely with our raw material suppliers to provide additional information to enhance our understanding of chemical interactions.

Product Label Information

Product labels reflect the same types of standards as the MSDS. Quaker also provides commonly employed Hazardous Materials Identification System (HMIS) labels. The HMIS system provides a quick overview of the product's health and safety aspects. Please note the biocide labeling is different; because it falls under the guidelines of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). Specific sections of the label are:

 

Specific Sections of Label
1.  Brand Name and Batch Number 6.  Protective Equipment
2.  HMIS Label 7.  First Aid

5.  Precautions to Take
