HazNode® Safety · Hazardous substances
Upload a safety data sheet and HazNode® reads the classification, hazards and handling detail straight off it. What normally takes an afternoon of retyping becomes a review, and the register stays current because keeping it current is no longer a project.
What it does
Nobody argues that a hazardous substance register is a bad idea. They avoid it because building one means transcribing hundreds of safety data sheets by hand, and maintaining one means doing it again.
Upload it and check the result
HazNode® extracts the classification, hazard information and handling detail from the safety data sheet itself, so building the register is a review rather than a retyping exercise. You correct what it got wrong instead of entering everything from scratch.
What you get
Details extracted from the uploaded SDS
Review and correct before it is saved
The source sheet stays attached to the substance
Adding a new substance takes minutes
Substances, quantities, locations
Every hazardous substance you hold, where it is stored, how much, and under whose control. Classification and hazard information travel with the substance, so the register answers the questions Health and Safety actually asks.
What you get
Substances by site, area and storage location
Quantities held against thresholds
Hazard classification carried on the record
Built around the New Zealand HSNO classifications
Not a folder from 2019
Safety data sheets are held against the substance with their issue dates, so an ageing sheet is visible in the register rather than discovered during an audit.
What you get
SDS attached to the substance record
Issue dates held with the document
Version history retained
One register across every site
Sound Familiar?
The safety data sheet folder is years out of date and nobody owns it.
Building the register means transcribing hundreds of safety data sheets by hand.
Quantities on the register are whatever they were when it was last typed up.
Risk assessments were done once, by a consultant, and never reviewed.
Management asks what you hold and where, and the answer takes a week to assemble.
What changes
Most hazardous substance registers are accurate on the day they are built and wrong within a year. The difference is how much work it takes to keep one current.
Extraction from the safety data sheet removes the transcription that stops most registers from ever being finished.
Adding or replacing a substance is a few minutes rather than an afternoon, so the register keeps up with what is actually on site.
What you hold, where, how much, its classification and its safety data sheet — from one place, current.

Send us one of your own safety data sheets and we will show you what HazNode® pulls off it, so you can judge how much of the typing actually disappears.
