Ingredient/Substance Report


This is a regulatory ingredient report that highlights changes in regulatory data for clients' own inventory. The changes are reported taking into consideration the ingredients of the products and changes in regulatory databases around the world. During Chemwatch's Onboarding process, the main contacts and/or other users designated to receive these reports on a regular basis are drawn from regulatory databases related to your country(s) (where applicable). Global reports are also available. Users can opt in or out of these reports at any time.


Important Notes


Clients that are WeWrites customers should not have concern with updating their SDS as Chemwatch will reflect any changes automatically.  Wewrite clients may however want to update any printed copies they have of the SDS.  The report in such cases can be seen as informatory only.  

 

If Chemwatch does not write for customers, the Ingredient/Substance report can be used as an informative alert. If customers formulate their own products or write their own SDSs, then this report comes as an alert for them as to changes that may affect their own products.

 

In general, this report highlights regulatory changes and these changes may or may not require an update to SDS but may have impacts in other parts of your business.
