SDS on Cleaners: Clorox, Bleach, Windex and Cascade

Household products are excluded from the Hazard Communication Standard if used as intended. However, when cleaners are used differently, such as in higher concentrations, SDS on cleaners is required. Always assess product use to determine if safety documentation is necessary. This ensures compliance and safety.

Windex and Chemical Inventory

If Windex is used to clean a window in the office just as it would at home, then likely you do not need to have the SDS or add it to your chemical inventory.

Using Windex in Different Applications

However, if you’re using Windex on your safety goggles to remove smudges, you’ll need an SDS and should add it to the chemical inventory.

Bleach and Chemical Inventory

If you’re using bleach to shock dental unit water lines or as a surface disinfectant (I’m not advocating this), then you must have an SDS and add it to your chemical inventory.

Cascade and Chemical Inventory

If you use Cascade and its use at work is for the dishwasher, then once again, likely you don’t need an SDS or to add it to the chemical list.
