MSDSonline, Chicago, Ill., USA, has launched its new chemical mapping feature for chemical inventory management. The feature gives users a visual representation of their workplace chemicals, and drag and drop controls convert facility floor plans into interactive maps. With the feature, users can now instantly identify, move, and manage their chemical inventories on image maps of their facilities.
"We think chemical mapping is a game changer when it comes to understanding workplace chemical environments," said Mike Flynn, MSDSonline VP of strategy and product development. "Our use of the web continues to be more and more visually based and now our customers have the tools that allow their employees to not just know what hazardous chemicals they have within the workplace, but more importantly see where those chemicals are specifically located."
According to Flynn, MSDSonline customers with either an HQ Account or HQ RegXR Account can log into their accounts and upload site maps of their facilities into the system. Numerous maps can be added to an account for multiple facilities, floors, or departments. Once uploaded, customers can then drag and drop container icons representing their specific chemical products onto the map. Completed maps can be viewed from the customer's personal chemical dashboard, called an eBinder, and used to quickly and accurately track and manage chemicals throughout a facility.
More information, or to sign up for a demo of MSDSonline's new mapping feature and suite of mobile-enabled chemical management solutions, is available online.
