Chemwatch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chemwatch is a major provider of chemical risk management information, based in Australia with an international network of affiliates. The company has independently reviewed MSDS and original suppliers' data for over two and a half million materials and supports a wide userbase, from school children to manufacturing conglomerates.
Chemwatch runs The Galleria project; a project to obtain information on everything chemical. It has the largest collection of information on international regulatory lists as well as many other things.
Chemwatch is based in the historic Kynaston building in Victoria (Australia). This building was the Railway Commisioners house in the 1880's, and has been variously a hospital and an abandoned shell until Chemwatch moved in and restored it. It has many features that are similar to the Spencer Street railway station, prior to its extensively renovation in 2005–2006.
Chemwatch has a multicultural staff, with experts in a wide cross-section of the world's languages, from American and Armenian to Vietnamese. Over 20 different languages are represented by native speakers.
