Non-standardized MDSs published by IMDS Steering Committee to be hidden
Please note that non-standardized MDSs that were published by the IMDS Steering Committee in the companies Stahl- und Eisen-Liste (313), IMDS-Committee (423) and IMDS-Committee / ILI Metals (18986), will be hidden on 3rd June 2024.
These hidden MDSs can then no longer be found nor used in new MDSs. Nevertheless, the use of received MDSs referencing these MDSs will still be possible.
The reason for hiding the MDSs is that the IMDS Steering Committee is responsible for all its published datasheets and encourages IMDS users to use standard materials. However, this only works for standardized MDSs and only if they match the product. For non-standardized MDSs this may lead to non-compliance with regulations.
These MDSs will be hidden: xls file

However, the text in the event of rejections will change slightly due to the new system. Additionally, with the new software, the BMW Group will also no longer accept data sheets in handshake mode.
