We provide a comprehensive approach, ranging from risk assessments and product labelling to the preparation of safety documentation and chemical compatibility assessments.
Verkís conducts risk assessments for the handling, storage, and use of chemicals and chemical products. These assessments identify potential hazards and provide clear recommendations to reduce risks, prevent accidents, and promote a safe working environment.
To help prevent accidents, manufacturers and importers are required to classify and label chemical products appropriately. Classification is based on the effects of substances on human health, their physical properties, and their environmental impacts. This classification forms the basis for requirements relating to labelling, packaging, use, and sale, helping to ensure safe handling throughout the product lifecycle.
Safety Data Sheets (SDS) provide standardized and essential information on the safe handling, storage, and transportation of chemicals. Verkís prepares, reviews, and updates SDS documentation to ensure compliance with safety requirements and best practices.
Chemical compatibility refers to the ability of materials and equipment to withstand exposure to various substances without degradation or loss of performance. This is particularly important in industrial environments where equipment may come into contact with acids, alkalis, solvents, and other corrosive substances. Verkís carries out chemical compatibility assessments to help ensure the safety, reliability, and longevity of equipment and process systems.
