When most people think about school safety, they imagine secure entrances, emergency drills, or health protocols. What often gets overlooked—but is just as critical—is chemical safety.
Every K–12 school handles a surprising variety of hazardous substances: science labs with acids and bases, janitorial closets filled with cleaning agents, art rooms stocked with paints and solvents, maintenance shops using fuels and lubricants. Each of these materials requires careful handling and must be accompanied by an up-to-date Safety Data Sheet (SDS) as mandated by OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (HazCom).
That’s why school districts across the U.S. are turning to mSDSsource—a purpose-built, affordable, and reliable SDS management system made specifically for K–12 education.
An SDS (Safety Data Sheet) provides detailed information about the hazards, handling, storage, and emergency procedures related to chemical substances. Under OSHA HazCom standards, schools are legally required to maintain accurate and accessible SDSs for any potentially hazardous material on-site.
mSDSsource helps schools meet these regulatory requirements while reducing the administrative burden.
