Detergents, cleaning agents, and laundry detergents are a broad product group that includes products in various forms – gels, powders, liquids, tablets, etc. – containing soap and/or other surfactants. It is important to note that products intended for personal hygiene are not included in this category. In order to ensure transparent and adequate communication of information to all stakeholders in the supply chain, these products are subject to a safety data sheet (SDS) containing important information about the chemical mixture. The SDS must comply with the requirements of the REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006.
The SDS provides information on the composition of the product, its hazards, safe use, storage, transportation, disposal, health and environmental effects, and first aid measures. Mixtures classified as hazardous to health or posing a physical hazard must also have a UFI code, which will enable specialists to provide appropriate assistance in the event of an accident or poisoning.

Safety data sheets for detergents, cleaning agents, and laundry detergents: what to pay attention to?
- Documents must be provided in the national language for each market where the product is supplied.
- Safety data sheets are prepared based on the actual composition of the product.
- The documents must be periodically reviewed and updated, especially when there are changes in legal regulations.
Why is it worth consulting experts?
A properly prepared safety data sheet is essential for the proper labeling, transportation, storage, and handling of cleaning agents, as well as for fulfilling other relevant obligations. In addition, by turning to experts, you will avoid unpleasant consequences and fines for errors or improperly prepared SDSs.
