Lisam's core product, ExESS, authors safety data sheets and labels from product formulations for 25 regional GHS modules and connects to ERP systems. Related modules handle EU poison-centre notifications, regulatory volume tracking and SDS distribution. A separate cloud application manages workplace chemical inventories. All pricing is by quote.
Built from vendor sources checked ; AI-assisted drafting. Documentation review, not a hands-on test. How pages are made
Chemical manufacturers and formulators that author their own SDS and labels for several GHS jurisdictions from ERP product data. ExESS, Lisam Chemicals, PubliChem and the EHS applications are separate products, so scope each one in the proposal. The pages describe mobile apps but no offline operation.
Worth evaluating for manufacturers and formulators that author SDS and labels in-house for several markets and want authoring tied to ERP data, poison-centre notifications and volume thresholds. Sites that only need to hold supplier SDS and a chemical register should scope Lisam Chemicals on its own. Field teams that work offline should demonstrate the mobile apps before committing.

Vendor visuals—not a QHSEtech hands-on test.
Lisam Systems, based in Belgium, sells a product-stewardship line and an EHS line. ExESS authors SDS and labels and runs PCN and volume-tracking modules; PubliChem distributes published SDS; Lisam Chemicals (also shown as ComplyStation Chemicals) manages workplace chemical inventories; the EHS applications cover incidents, audits, a compliance calendar and environmental reporting. Lisam acquired the US EHS vendor Perillon in 2019.
| Capability | Evidence | Scope and source |
|---|---|---|
| SDS and label authoring for regional GHS | Documented by vendor | ExESS authors SDS, labels and safety instruction cards with automated classification, batch generation and multilingual output (56+ languages on one page, 57 on another). The regional-modules page lists 25 regional GHS modules, including a UN GHS module, covering among others the EU, GB, US, Canada, China, Japan and Korea.

| ERP and third-party integration | Depends on scope | Real-time API integration and batch integration tools are described; SAP, Microsoft Dynamics/Navision, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Oracle and ProcessPro are named as systems clients have integrated. Treat these as project work to scope, not packaged connectors. ExESS SDS compliance and ERP integration |
| UFI generation and PCN submission | Documented by vendor | UFI generator, EuPCS categories, PCN-format records mapped from existing ExESS product data, PCN validation, update tracking and system-to-system transfer to the ECHA submission portal. PCN submission and UFI generation |
| Regulatory volume tracking | Documented by vendor | Tonnage bands per substance and legal entity, threshold alarms and simulations for EU REACH (including SVHC in mixtures and article BOMs), UK REACH, US CDR with e-CDRweb export, Japan CSCL, K-REACH, Taiwan TCCSCA and Turkey KKDIK. Substance volume tracking |
| Workplace chemical inventory and Tier II | Depends on scope | Lisam Chemicals tracks chemical details and unlimited locations, stock movements and container quantities, TPQ thresholds, barcode scanning, secondary-container GHS labels and an automatic SARA Title III/Tier II report. A mobile app is offered. This is a separate product from ExESS. Chemical inventory managementLisam Chemicals application |
| SDS distribution and versioning | Documented by vendor | PubliChem distributes published SDS and safety documents to customers automatically, stores archived versions and gives customers direct access to current documents. PubliChem document distributionSDS authoring and distribution |
| EHS incidents, audits and mobile apps | Depends on scope | Incidents covers spills and releases, injuries, vehicle accidents, property damage, security breaches and integrated CAPA with notifications. Audits describes drag-and-drop forms, workflow logic, dashboards and mobile and desktop apps. The ComplyStation Android app (updated July 2026) handles actions, assessments and incidents.

| Offline field capture | Depends on scope | Lisam's current homepage states that EHS processes can capture information while offline, but it does not identify the supported applications, cached records, synchronization behavior or conflict handling. Demonstrate the exact mobile workflow and reconnect path in the quoted product. Current EHS portfolio and offline-capture statement — checked 28 September 2026 |
| Compliance calendar and deadline escalation | Depends on scope | The Compliance Calendar centralizes reporting deadlines, sampling events, scheduled audits and permit requirements, with assignment or completion alerts and triggers or escalation for missed deadlines. A link to order-management systems is described as possible and should be scoped as implementation work. Compliance calendar, deadline alerts and escalation — checked 28 September 2026 |
| Environmental calculations and regulatory reporting | Depends on scope | Lisam Sources processes air, water and waste data, centralizes formulas, monitors KPIs and thresholds, and can assign corrective actions after permit exceedances. The page lists US outputs including e-GGRT, Title V, TRI and NPDES/DMR; confirm jurisdiction, formula validation and the separately licensed Sources scope. Environmental calculations, thresholds and regulatory reports — checked 28 September 2026 |

Custom quote
No amount is published for ExESS, its modules, PubliChem, Lisam Chemicals or the EHS applications; every page leads to a demo request, and outsourced SDS sourcing is quoted. Request separate lines for modules, regional content, PCN, volume tracking, inventory users, deployment, ERP interfaces, migration and support.
Pricing sources checked : Selected sources checked; no starting price recorded.
ExESS: SDS, label and safety-instruction authoring with regional GHS modules, integrated regulatory content, PCN/UFI and substance volume tracking. PubliChem: SDS distribution and versioning. Lisam Chemicals: cloud chemical inventory, SDS access, secondary labels and Tier II reporting. EHS: incidents, audits and inspections, compliance calendar, environmental reporting, document distribution.
Ask the vendor to identify the product, region, modules, billing unit, contract term and included services in writing.
Lisam's audits page mentions mobile and desktop apps, Lisam Chemicals offers a mobile app for chemical data, and the ComplyStation Android app covers actions, assessments and incidents. None of these pages describes offline capture or later synchronisation. The vendor homepage does say EHS processes can be captured on the go and while offline, without naming the applications, cached records or synchronisation behaviour. ExESS can be installed on a single workstation or a corporate network as well as used in the cloud, which is a deployment choice rather than a field offline mode.
Lisam offers its own OEL, EU, GHS and REACH lists and optional integrated third-party libraries: BIG for the EU, JCDP for Japan, SRICI for China and ChemADVISOR's LOLI globally, updated with one click according to the product page.
The authoring page says ExESS can be installed on single workstations, over corporate networks or used via the cloud, built on Microsoft .NET.
ExESS volume tracking covers US Chemical Data Reporting, including worker exposure, usage and CBI tracking, and creates the XML upload file per site for EPA's e-CDRweb tool.
Lisam Systems acquired Perillon Software, a US EHS compliance and risk vendor, in June 2019. Lisam's current EHS pages present incidents, audits, compliance calendar and environmental reporting under the Lisam name.
