Most countries have laws governing how dangerous goods should be handled and transported. If you are selling these sorts of products there are requirements to produce special data sheets and emergency cards.
IBS Dangerous Goods creates MSDS (material safety data sheets) for a wide range of countries including the EU and the US. It also creates TREM (transport emergency) cards, which will be required before they can be shipped to customers.
You are legally responsible for knowing where dangerous goods are sold. The software tags incoming goods with an MSDS identifier and automatically tracks their sale to customers.
If appropriate you can add drawings as an attachment to the MSDS. The MSDS, labels and customer letters can be printed automatically along with standard freight documents.
Because it is integrated within IBS Enterprise, Dangerous Goods has full language support. When a customer buys dangerous goods for the first time, a letter must be sent to them independently of the delivery, informing them of how to handle the goods. This letter can be created in their own language or a language of their choice.
If a shipment crosses borders, TREM cards will automatically be created in the language of every country it passes through.
