What is the GeSi GefStoff-Profi software?

GefStoff-Profi is a hazardous materials management software that maps out interconnected processes rather than individual documents—from safety data sheets to risk assessments to operating instructions. 

The Most Important Thing

Professional Hazardous Materials Management with GeSi

From safety data sheets to the reading portal: digitally connect key work steps.

With GeSi, you can map key hazardous substance processes in a structured and traceable manner. Safety data sheets serve as the data foundation from which hazardous substance inventories, risk assessments, and operating instructions are derived. Relevant information can then be made available to employees in a targeted manner.

Use Safety Data Sheets
with SDBcheck®

Review, digitize, and process data from the safety data sheet.

Your advantage

SDBcheck® makes relevant data from supplier safety data sheets accessible—for hazardous substance inventories, GBU, and operating instructions

Structured Development of Hazardous Substance Management

Accurately record hazardous substances, locations, and quantities.

Your advantage

You can keep track of materials, quantities, workstations, and storage locations in a centralized and traceable manner.

Assess Hazards and Develop Operating Instructions

Map risk assessments and operating instructions directly within the system.

Your advantage

Hazardous Substance GBUs and operating instructions are created and maintained directly within the software.

Provide information for employees or customers

Make safety data sheets, operating instructions, and other information on hazardous substances easily accessible.

Your advantage

Make safety data sheets, operating instructions, and information on hazardous substances available via the intranet or read-only portals, depending on your company's structure.

Two Approaches to Professional Hazardous Materials Management

GeSi³ and GeSi⁴ – Find the Right Solution for Your Situation

GeSi offers two software solutions for professional hazardous substance management: GeSi³ GefStoff-Profi and GeSi4 GefStoff-Profi. Both are based on GeSi Software’s technical expertise. At the same time, they differ in terms of their range of functions, technical foundation, and starting point.

GeSi³ GefStoff-Profi als bewährte Gefahrstoffmanagement Software
GeSi³ GefStoff-Profi

For companies that want to start working right away with a mature system, a wide range of features, and established hazardous materials processes.

  • Established
  • Comprehensive set of features
  • Proven in practice
  • For complex requirements
  • Can be integrated with FaSi-Profi and SDB-Profi
Your advantage

You’ll be using a proven, expert-developed solution with a wide range of features, established processes, and extensive practical experience in professional hazardous materials management.

GeSi4 GefStoff-Profi als browserbasierte Gefahrstoffmanagement Software
GeSi4 GefStoff-Profi

For companies that are launching browser-based solutions, want to start using GeSi4 early on, and would like to participate in the Early Access program for the new generation of software.

  • Browser-based
  • SaaS and on-premises
  • Early Access
  • Priority Support
  • Opportunity to contribute
Your advantage

It works in a browser, regardless of the device you're using—whether you're in the office, working from home, or on the go. There's no need for a local installation on individual workstations. GerSi4 can be deployed as a SaaS solution or run on your own IT infrastructure.

"The right solution stems from the initial situation: What processes are already in place, what functions are needed, and how should work be carried out within the company? With GeSi Software, hazardous substance processes can be mapped in a technically sound and traceable manner. GeSi³ and GeSi4 are two different approaches to achieving the same goal: professional hazardous materials management in day-to-day operations."

FAQ

Interesting facts about the GefStoff-Profi

What is professional hazardous materials management?

Professional hazardous substance management encompasses all tasks related to the safe and traceable handling of hazardous substances within a company. This includes safety data sheets, a hazardous substance inventory, risk assessments, operating instructions, and the provision of relevant information to employees. GeSi Software’s hazardous substances management software helps to bring these steps together in a structured way and to map hazardous substances processes in a traceable manner.

Why is an Excel spreadsheet often not enough for hazardous materials management?

Excel spreadsheets may be sufficient for simple overviews, but they usually provide only a limited representation of interconnected hazardous substance processes. Safety data sheets, hazardous substance inventories, risk assessments, operating instructions, updates, and read access must often be maintained in multiple locations. Specialized hazardous materials management software reduces siloed solutions, prevents duplicate data entry, and brings together key workflows in a more structured manner.

What role do safety data sheets play in hazardous materials management?

Safety data sheets are a central database for hazardous substance management. They contain information on classification, labeling, protective measures, storage, and other safety-related details. With SDBcheck®, data from supplier safety data sheets can be extracted, verified, and made available for further processing in GeSi.

Are supplier safety data sheets read in automatically?

Yes, you can use the SDBcheck® online tool to upload your suppliers’ safety data sheets for a plausibility check. The tool automatically parses the data and transfers it to GeSi³ or GeSi4 via an interface.

Can GeSi automatically generate operating instructions?

Yes. GeSi supports the creation of operating instructions based on existing hazardous substance data or MSDS data. The automatically generated operating instructions can then be reviewed and modified. In GeSi4, a further enhancement is planned that will enable the creation of activity-specific operating instructions based on the risk assessment.

How is information made available to employees?

GeSi enables the targeted provision of relevant hazardous substance information, safety data sheets, and operating instructions. Depending on the solution, this is done via intranet portals or cloud-based hazardous substance portals, allowing employees to view the information relevant to their area.

Does GeSi support REACH-compliant and legally compliant work?

GeSi helps you implement relevant hazardous substance management requirements in a structured manner. This includes verified MSDS data, a traceable hazardous substance inventory, documented risk assessments, and up-to-date operating instructions. This enables you to establish a solid foundation for REACH-compliant and legally compliant operations.

What is the difference between GeSi³ GefStoff-Profi and GeSi4 GefStoff-Profi?

GeSi³ GefStoff-Profi is the proven expert solution with a comprehensive range of features. GeSi4 GefStoff-Profi is the new browser-based generation currently in Early Access—technically sound, developed from the ground up, and shaped by the experience gained from GeSi³. Both solutions support professional hazardous substance management, but differ in their range of features, technical foundation, and entry point.
