Quick filters
A quick filter is a predefined filter package created by Intersolia, a packaged opinion on which chemical risk sources are relevant to look at in a given context. Quick filters are built on Intersolia's knowledge of chemical management and regulatory requirements, and are designed to help you find the right risk sources quickly, without having to know exactly which H-phrases or criteria you should filter on.
Why do quick filters exist?Chemical regulations are complex. It takes specialist knowledge to know which H-phrases define a flammable product, which substances are acutely toxic, or which require extra consideration in cases of allergy. Quick filters package that knowledge for you.
This means that a user without deep chemical expertise can ask relevant and accurate questions of their inventory — without having to learn the regulations in detail.
Examples of quick filters
| Quick filter | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Flammable | Identify risk sources with flammable properties — important for fire safety, legal requirements and the emergency services' preparedness |
| Hazardous to humans | Risk sources with acutely toxic properties via ingestion, skin contact or inhalation |
| Environmentally hazardous | Risk sources with harmful effects on aquatic organisms |
| Allergens | Risk sources that can cause skin or respiratory allergy |
| CMR | Carcinogenic, mutagenic and reproductively toxic substances |
Quick filters are independent of which list view you are in. You can combine a quick filter with any list view — you choose what you see (list view) and what you filter on (quick filter) separately. This gives great flexibility without having to configure everything from scratch every time.
Relation to other filtersQuick filters do not replace ordinary filters — they complement them. You can use a quick filter as a starting point and then refine with additional filter selections if needed.
