This article explains how to add local language names to a ChemCheck product, including the rules for what is and is not allowed.

01/ Introduction

Chemical Formulators can add up to 10 local language names to each product. These names appear in the product portfolio table below the primary product name. They are intended for translations of the product name as documented in the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — not for commercial brand names.

02/ Rules for local language names

Before adding names, keep the following rules in mind:

• Translations only. Local language names must be translations of the primary product name. They must appear in the product's Safety Data Sheet.
• No commercial names. Commercial or trade names for the product are not permitted. If a commercial name is added, it may be identified and removed by the ZDHC quality team.
• Any characters accepted. Names can include non-Latin scripts, such as Chinese, Arabic, Turkish, or Cyrillic characters. There is no restriction on character type.
• Maximum 10 names per product. You can add up to 10 local language names to a single product.

03/ Adding local language names when creating a product

1. In the product creation form, locate the Local language names section.
2. Click Add local language name.
3. Enter the translated name in the text field.
4. To add another name, click Add local language name again. Repeat up to 10.

04/ Adding or editing local language names after the product is created

1. Open the product from your product portfolio.
2. On the product detail page, click Edit in the top-right corner. The edit panel opens on the right.
3. In the edit panel, locate the Local language names section.
4. Add new names or update existing ones.
5. Click Save to apply your changes.

05/ Tips & Notes

Note: The ZDHC quality team may review local language names and remove any that do not appear in the Safety Data Sheet, or that appear to be commercial names. If a name is removed, you will be notified.

Tip: If you need to update the product name across multiple languages, check that the primary product name and all local language names are consistent with the current version of your Safety Data Sheet before saving.
