The Globally Harmonized System (GHS) is the international standard for hazard communication. TARE ensures your lab stays compliant by automatically associating hazard data with every inventory item.

Pictograms

Visual indicators of risk (e.g., Flame, Skull & Crossbones). TARE displays these prominently on item details and printed labels.

Signal Words

DANGER (severe) or WARNING (less severe). This indicates the relative level of severity of the hazard.

SDS Management

TARE automatically fetches and stores the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) PDF for every chemical you add. You can view or download it directly from the item's page.
