  • Safety Data Sheet (SDS) product-specific

Traceability

Raw Material → Lot → Batch → CoA

Batch-specific information provides the link between raw-material origin, production batch and available quality documentation.

  1. Raw Material

    Raw material and origin

    Product-specific origin and raw-material information is provided.

  2. Lot

    Raw material lot

    The raw-material lot identifies the material used for a later extraction batch.

  3. Batch

    Production batch

    The production batch links the finished product to its raw-material lot.

  4. CoA

    Batch-specific analysis

    The certificate of analysis records batch-specific results for the product supplied.

Available documentation

  • Available records depend on the product and batch.
  • Product specifications and certificates of analysis serve different purposes.
  • We confirm the current documentation package for your enquiry.

Documentation

Product specifications and quality documentation

Depending on the product, technical data sheets, certificates of analysis or other product-related documents may be relevant.

We confirm availability and scope for each enquiry.

Product specification

Describes the agreed technical characteristics and requirements for the relevant product.

Batch-specific documents

A certificate of analysis (CoA) relates to a specific batch. Further documentation is available depending on the product.

We confirm which documents are available for the relevant product and enquiry.

Product-specific testing

Test scope and methods

We confirm the applicable test parameters and methods for the relevant product, batch and requested documentation.

Storage

Stability and shelf life

Shelf life, storage conditions and retest interval are specific to the product and batch. They are stated in the technical data sheet and the certificate of analysis. No blanket figure is published here.

Shelf life
Period from date of manufacture, per product
Storage conditions
Temperature, protection from light and moisture, container
Retest interval
Interval at which a stored batch is tested again
Stability data
Test plan, storage conditions and results of the stability study

Regulatory documentation

Conformity and document status in one place.

EU conformity, declarability, species protection, certifications and available records are assessed by product on the Regulatory Information page.
