For customers who are currently registered with CHEMTREC, there are two options for submitting information on products you ship.
Option 1: Your company website
If all of your company's (Material) Safety Data Sheets ((M)SDS) are available online, send the URL and instructions for accessing your documents to msds@chemtrec.com. If your website or in-house (M)SDS system is password-protected, we require a single user name and password. ALL documents must be available for products you ship and/or manufacture, including consumer/finished products, private label products and raw ingredients.
Once your website is approved by CHEMTREC, it will be used as the sole source of (M)SDS for products you ship. It is the Registrant's responsibility to notify CHEMTREC if the URL or access to your system is ever modified.
Option 2: Electronic documents
If you are submitting over 300 documents, you must provide an electronic index with your submission or your documents will not be processed. For instructions and a sample index, click here.
Send in a CHEMTREC Document Submission Form with each set of documents. The information you include on this form will help expedite the processing of your submission.
Please note: due to the high volume of documents received each day, we are unable to provide confirmation of receipt.
Electronic Document Requirements:
- Each document should be sent as an individual file. File types we accept are pdf, doc, xls, tif, and txt.
- File names should not contain # ~ % .. & { } + and should not begin with a space.
You can send your document set in one of the following ways:
- Email document set to msds@chemtrec.com (5MB limit)
- Mail electronic files of documents on a CD/DVD or USB drive to:

Foreign Language Documents
