SDS Signs

Yes. Our customizable SDS sign templates allow you to add a specific location, department name, phone number, or instructions for accessing the SDS station. Custom SDS signs are available in aluminum, rigid plastic, and adhesive vinyl - ideal for large facilities with multiple SDS stations across different departments or chemical storage areas.

MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) signs reference the old OSHA HazCom 1994 format, while SDS signs reference the updated GHS-aligned HazCom 2012 format that became mandatory in 2015. We recommend using SDS signs to stay current with OSHA's Globally Harmonized System alignment. We carry both designations for facilities still transitioning their chemical safety documentation programs.

SDS station signs should be posted at every location where chemical safety sheets are stored and wherever workers handle or are exposed to hazardous chemicals - including chemical storage rooms, mixing areas, maintenance stations, and lab benches. We recommend posting signs at eye level near the SDS binder location and at entry points to chemical work areas for maximum accessibility and OSHA compliance.

Yes, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200 (HazCom 2012) requires that Safety Data Sheets be readily accessible to employees during their work shifts. Posting SDS station signs ensures workers know exactly where to find chemical safety information, supporting compliance with OSHA's HazCom standard and ensuring quick access to SDS documents during chemical handling or emergency response situations.
