Atrion provides a complete solution to strengthen companies, to stay align with current and
future legal requirements when managing chemicals. Atrion solution’s modules are designed to
integrate with key ERP systems enabling consistent support for business compliance
processes.

Materials Compliance Suite (MCS):


MCS is Atrion’s innovative and highly flexible component-based solution. It includes software
applications, up-to-date regulatory content and access to regulatory portals. With MCS, you can
easily and cost-effectively adapt, manage and respond to global legislative changes as well as
control existing regulatory compliance risks.
MCS solution has a powerful ‘rule-based’ DOCument generation engine, allowing automated
generation of multi-lingual (42 languages) ‘Use-based’ extended SDS with attached Exposure
Scenario’s. The rules cover country specific C&L and (M)SDS requirements, for over 40
countries.
With data submission requirements of REACH the functionality of the REACH exchange
component ensures consistency of information disclosed to the authorities and throughout the
supply chain with Atrion’s Bi-directional Interface to IUCLID 5.

Compliance Suite for EH&S:


This software is designed to specifically complement SAP EH&S. It is a pre-packaged solution
and enables organizations to easily integrate Atrion’s regulatory expertise and content into their

2.2 Chemwatch - AuthorITe
In the course of 18 years AuthorITe Authoring Software was designed to produce MSDS for
most types of substance/ preparation/ article – not only can an MSDS for a common paint be
developed but, in addition, MSDS for radioactive articles or pathogens, as just two examples,
can also be produced. Underlying this flexibility is a set of rules set numbering more than
70,000, most handcrafted and reviewed by authors using them on a daily basis. The experience
of more than 100 chemists and safety professionals has been distilled, over 18 years, to
produce the current product.

AuthorITe includes the entire health and safety profile of over 50,000 substances, each
individually researched and annotated by our own team. In addition AuthorITe is supported by
an underlying database of Regulation from more than 50 countries. More than 4 million
substances and 500,000 CAS Numbers are available from more than 1000 Regulatory and
Properties Lists. This database, known collectively as Galleria Chemica, is produced and
maintained entirely by Chemwatch professional staff and is updated weekly on the Web.
AuthorITe can link directly to the Web version of the Galleria Chemica for real time updates of
Regulation around the world.

Exporters using authoring packages require not only a multi-language facility but a multi -format
and -classification ability. Japan, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand, for
example, differ in their requirements for producing MSDS. The USA, similarly, has its own
standards. Each requirement or standard is available in AuthorITe. AuthorITe already produces
GHS formatted DOCuments according to the GHS criteria. New Zealand adopted a form of
GHS DOCument several years ago whilst it is expected that Japan will do so soon. GHS criteria
for classification is just one example of differing criteria currently required by various countries.
AuthorITe maintains a complete set of Rules addressing the classification requirements of
countries outside the EU. The content of a single MSDS, written for one country, is
automatically converted to reflect the requirements of another country – language, format and
classification may all differ.

AuthorITe produces MSDS and Labels in more than 30 languages; in addition Work
Instructions, for example Betriebsanweisung, mini-MSDS and many other workplace
DOCuments are produced simultaneously.

Every MSDS produced by AuthorITe may bear the Chemwatch Emergency Number ensuring
24/7 contact with our Emergency Response team. The team boasts more than 50 languages
and trained chemists are available to handle queries from around the world related to spill, fire
or exposure.

Offices in 17 countries. Please visit www.chemwatch.net to find your nearest location:

2.15 GeSi SDB-Profi - Feitsch GmbH

The GeSi SDB-Profi is a software which supports the production and administration of legal-
compliant safety data sheets. The software is data sheet based and is built up after the defaults of
REACH (article 31 and appendix II). The most important feature is the automatical classification and
labelling from the hazardous ingredients on the base of the integrated hazardous substances
database. Other assistants lead through the single segments of the safety data sheet and offer filling
or decisive support.

The safety data sheet is compact and formed clear. Own logo as well as head lines and footing lines
allow an "individual" safety data sheet. By means of additional equipment a foreign-language issue of
the safety data sheet is also possible with automated translation (from 1st quarter in 2008: west-
European languages).

The GeSi SDB-Profi is easy to install and to serve intuitively and distinguishes itself by a very good
price-achievement relation. The software may also be used for the management of hazardous
substances (risk assessment and protection classes, registry of the hazardous substances, operating
instructions).

General information:
- software updates quarterly (update services)
- hazardous substances database with all substances from annex I of 67/548/EEC
- integrated text phrases (BDI-phrases)
- output of safety data sheets in .PDF, or .HTML
- Label print
- network and single place version available
- classification according GHS in preparation

contained in certain substance lists (e.g. for national occupational exposure limits), national
occupational exposure limits, dangerous goods lists (ADR, IMDG, IATA), WHC, Swiss VOC etc.

The authorized user can configure the multilingual input- and output structures by himself. Ready-to-
use standards already exist for the EC Safety Data Sheet and other documents like Transport
document, IMO-/IATA Declaration, Tremcards, workplace instructions, label data etc. The documents
are generated by means of the calculation modules and product group specific templates. The version
management according to a hierarchical region assignment model (e.g. flash point > World, MAK
(SUVA) > Switzerland, R-phrases > EC) enables the automatical re-dispatch of SDSs on relevant
modifications for the concerned regions.

HSM is in line with the NAV standards, on the other hand, on the basis of the Microsoft Dynamics™
NAV kernel it can be integrated into other ERP software environments like SAP or others. Emphasis is
