COMING IN THE NEW YEAR - CONTROL BANDING

msdsBinders customers will have access to control banding functionality in the up coming new year.  

Control banding will allow msdsBinders clients to properly control chemical hazards in the workplace.  Information from the MSDS along with operating conditions will be used to provide information on the correct handling of products.  Control banding also allows clients to combine products, thus letting clients safely deal with custom mixtures that are often used in various common tasks. Watch for full details in our January/February 2012 Newsletter!
