The GHS converter is a tool of the industry-specific hazardous substances information system GisChem provided by BG RCI and freely accessible in German and English at www.gischem.de.
The programme helps managers especially in small and medium sized enterprises to familiarise themselves with the new classification and the new labelling according to the CLP regulation (Regulation on classification, labelling and packaging of sub-stances and mixtures). Another purpose is to assess what substances and mixtures are affected by reclassification.


The GHS converter proposes the new CLP-compliant classification based on the previous classification using the translation table (Annex VII of the CLP regulation) or based on Annex VI, table 3.1. If the substance’s UN number which provides details on the transport classification is available, an even more precise classification is possible. The final result – a comparison of the old and new labeling – can be delivered as WORD or PDF and can be used, for example, for safety advisories.

 

The tool is available in English at http://www.gischem.de/ghs/index.htm?client_locale=EN
