We rely on ERA for SDS and EDS Generation & HAPs search

ERA’s software has made operations infinitely easier by readily providing SDS generation and air report generation. We also use it to determine the theoretical density for new products. Without this, it would be challenging to determine new product formulae. We also enjoy the technical support from ERA scientists. They provide detailed walkthroughs for every question and always have resources available for further assistance, such as help file PDFs and video resources.
