CHICAGO, IL, August 30, 2007 – MSDSonline® ) today announced it was named to Inc. Magazine’s 2007 list of fastest growing privately held companies. According to the Inc. reviewers, these entrepreneurial companies represent the backbone of the US economy. MSDSonline, a leader in on-demand Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and safety management services, made its debut on the Inc. 5000 list with a ranking of 2566, making it among the fastest growing privately held companies in the country.
“We’re honored to be recognized on the Inc. 5000 list.” said Glenn Trout, President of MSDSonline. “It’s a tremendous validation of the trust our customers have in the products and services we offer. We are proud of the key role we play in our customers’ workplace safety and compliance programs worldwide.
“Where other Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) industry companies have grown through acquisition, we are especially proud that we have achieved our growth organically, through continued product innovation and unparalleled customer service and support,” he said.
Nearly a decade ago, MSDSonline pioneered online access to Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) – an Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) required document used to promote the safe handling of hazardous materials and chemicals in the workplace. Today, the company houses more than 3.5 million MSDSs in its online database, which is accessed by more than 750,000 users around the world.
Since then, MSDSonline has expanded on its traditional MSDS offerings with additional safety management and compliance solutions. According to Trout, making the Inc. 5000 list is a clear indicator that the EH&S industry is ready for electronic solutions to replace inefficient paper record keeping and regulatory compliance processes.
The MSDSonline suite of products and services offer EH&S professionals the ability to manage safety compliance needs without the hassle of software or paper. With a simple compliance equation of easy access, management and deployment, the company’s products reduce cost and improve employee health and safety.
“Our continued success depends on the satisfaction of our customers. We look forward to finding ways to improve our existing offerings as well as developing new products and services that address the needs of EH&S professionals worldwide.” said Trout.
