Any hazardous substances that you have added will be listed here. At the moment we have no assigned substances. Please note that there is a difference between adding a hazard and assigning a hazard.

I will assign a added hazard by clicking on the substance of my choosing and clicking Save

Click “manage Substances” again and Click “Create Substance”

I will add Round Up as a Hazardous Substance and add any trade names.

A Material Safety Data Sheet also needs to be added this document contains information on the potential hazards and can be downloaded from the manufactures website. The best way to obtain a Material Safety Data sheet is to simply google it. We currently don’t store Material Data Sheets because of the sheer number of hazardous Substances in existence.
