Buy only from manufacturers that make your life easy.

[ruff]

I prefer doing business with and supporting companies that try to make my life a little easier.
Every once in a while I need to print a label for one of the products I use. Due to that damn disaster zone called the back of my van!!

The following manufacturers have easy to print labels, easily accessible and printable MSDS + detailed product information. All on their website. Buy only from those manufacturers who are considerate of our needs. They make our lives a little easier. Their effort is much appreciated.

Kudos to the following companies that care:

• Chemspec: (Very well done product info page. It will help if the master label could also be printed(currently unprintable. Nice touch about the work labels. Excellent job.)
• Sapphire: (Very well done.)
• Bridgepoint /Interlink: (Very well done. It seems to be just for the Bridgepoint products.)

Those that don't seem to have much of a clue:

• ProChem. (No printable labels, no good product instructions or good detail)

Wake up ProChem, before your entire lunch gets eaten.

That's just my honest feedback. Other folks here, please update about other manufacturers.

I agree on the Bridgepoint labeling. I've always loved how easy to read/understand everything is on their bottles. Even a hack can understand it. Their products tend to be on the high end $$$ but I've been using them for years because they are effective and easy to use.

Fels Naptha, on the other hand, required a video tutorial from Mike for me to understand. Excellent product too however. ;-)

Larry, why don't you put the PD sheets and MSDS on your website?

Not sure though if I follow from your links.

Here are a few examples of what I mean. Please notice- All have easily accessible and clear instructions and product info + printable labels, MSDS etc.
Here's what I meant:

another great thread. it's a no-brainer for our biz, we are going to buy from a supplier who makes it easy for us. we only order from those supp's with an online ordering infrastructure. all my invoicing and quotes are via email, so i'm already online. why would i want to talk with a supplier, distrib or salesman when i can save myself a half hour or more & order and pay via Paypal when i am simply ordering more cleaning solution?? yet some suppliers seem to take offense ... get with the times ppl, we are ALL busy. if you save me time, then you save me $. fortunately almost every supplier/distrib is online and good to go.
