Zoesoe Exports Pvt Ltd offers end-to-end SDS (Safety Data Sheet) Preparation and Review Services tailored specifically to meet the Senegalese regulatory requirements for chemical, herbal, cosmetic, food, and industrial products. With years of experience in global regulatory support, we ensure your SDS/FDS is accurate, compliant with local standards, and ready for regulatory submission, import, or use within Senegal.
Why SDS (FDS) Is Mandatory in Senegal
Senegal has demonstrated a commitment to implementing the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) and has participated in GHS capacity-building projects (UNITAR/ILO). While comprehensive GHS regulations may still be in development across all sectors, the principle of providing hazard information is mandatory under:
Workplace Safety: The Code du Travail (Labour Code), particularly the Title on Hygiene and Safety, places the responsibility on the employer to inform and protect workers from risks associated with chemical products.
Environmental Protection: The Ministry of Environment has a mandate for controlling hazardous chemicals, often requiring documentation for authorization.
Import & Trade: For importing Hazardous Chemicals, authorization is required from the Ministry of the Environment (as per import formalities documents), for which the safety data sheet is essential.
A compliant FDS (Fiche de Données de Sécurité) for Senegal must be:
Language Specific: Primarily written in French (Français), the official business and technical language. (The term FDS is preferred over SDS in Francophone countries).
Format: Prepared in the internationally recognized 16-section GHS format as the established global standard.
Legally Referenced: Aligned with the provisions of the Code du Travail regarding worker information and safety.
Zoesoe Exports ensures your documentation meets these national mandates and international best practices for chemical management.
