Hello--
Here's the section on the Sigma-Aldrich website that details GHS
implementation within Sigma-Aldrich. As Sigma-Aldrich is an international
corporation, all of the product labels & MSDSs have to be GHS compliant by
the EU implementation date.

[DCHAS-L] GHS on (M)SDS
I'm curious if people have been noticing Globally Harmonized System style
hazard communication information showing up in the laboratory chemical
world. I'm thinking in terms of labels, safety data sheets, technical
bulletins, etc. I looked at two Sigma/Aldrich MSDS's from the web and one
from 2010 used the system and one from 2004 that didn't. I wonder what
percent of the lab world is seeing this information and is aware of this
change at this point?
Any observations or comments would be appreciated.
- Ralph
P.S. Anyone who'd like a good primer on the GHS system in the lab context,
as well as many lab safety subjects, would do well to pick up
