Mission & Vision
Kemibrug’s mission is to offer knowledge and resources for appropriate behavior when working with chemicals, while at the same time protecting people and the environment from negative impact caused by chemicals.
We are passionate about the working environment and ensuring that all employees can work safely with chemicals and return home safely. Our team has a background in practical work with chemicals and understands the depth and seriousness of this work. Our values are rooted in our passion for the working environment, our desire to share knowledge and our dedication to protecting both people and the environment.
With focus on the future, we are actively working on developing a new and improved version of the Kemibrug database. Emphasis is placed on the need for a smooth transition to the new system, while focusing on introducing user-friendliness to ensure an efficient and problem-free work process for users.
The Story Behind It
Kemibrug has its roots in a visionary idea from the 1980s, devised by a passionate group at the Technical University of Denmark in Lyngby. Then as now, the goal was to support research and education by ensuring safe and regulatory-compliant handling of chemicals.
Over the years, the project grew from a local solution to a nationwide resource when the University of Southern Denmark, Aalborg University and the University of Copenhagen joined the collaboration. This cross-institutional collaboration has not only strengthened Kemibrug’s foundation but also expanded its reach and depth.
From its original purpose of ensuring compliance with occupational health and safety legislation, Kemibrug has developed into a comprehensive and vital chemical database that today serves as an invaluable resource for researchers, students and safety personnel across the country’s educational institutions. With an ever-developing database and new technological solutions, Kemibrug contributes to shaping future safety standards in the research and education sector.
The Kemibrug Platform
Kemibrug er en kemikaliedatabase, der udgør en vigtig ressource for enhver, der arbejder med kemikalier, og fungerer som et værdifuldt værktøj til både at sikre overholdelse af regler og fremme sikkerheden inden for kemisk håndtering og brug.
Platformen består af tre centrale elementer: en omfattende database med over 20.000 kemikaliebrugsanvisninger, muligheden for at tilføje lokale vejledninger og regler samt et system til registrering af kemikalieoplag.
Udover dette muliggør Kemibrug søgninger for at identificere stoffer underlagt særlige regler, såsom brandfare eller kræftfremkaldende egenskaber. Denne omfattende information kan også være til hjælp ved udarbejdelse af kemiske risikovurderinger. Formålet med Kemibrug er at hjælpe brugerne med at overholde arbejdsmiljølovgivningen ved at tilbyde let adgang til dokumentation for de kemikalier, der anvendes lokalt. Det er muligt at abonnere på ændringer i kemikaliebrugsanvisninger således at brugere kan følge med i lovgivningsmæssige forandringer for forskellige stoffer.
