SDS is the sheet that is used during a Logistics process,it contains the contents of load(Load capacity,type of load,temperature,loading system,storaging and how to deal with the content incase of emergency) it could be chemical (Gas,oil,petrol).Here in Australia they call it MSDS or Measurable Safety Data Sheet,example:If you have a delivery of Hazardous chemicals in any of the Transportation units(Truck,Van,Train,ship,air freight) without a MSDS the delivery process it won't be completed and an action would be taken against you by the Work Safe commit .In that case, you might get a penalty since you jeopardize yourself and others to high risk action.
