IMDS - Compliance Professional

The IMDS

The IMDS (International Material Data System) is an internet-based archiving, communication and administrative system for the automotive industry. It simplifies the process of recycling of automobiles. It was developed by DXC Technology in 1999 to meet the requirements of the End-of-Life Vehicle Directive (ELV) and to convey material data by safe and speedy means (refer also to IMDS Number).

The IMDS data bank is a common effort of automobile manufacturers like Audi, BMW, DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors, Porsche, VW and Volvo. Other companies like Fiat, Hyundai, Isuzu, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Renault, Suzuki, and Toyota have joined the team. Talks are on with other companies for their participation, which means that in the meanwhile almost all automobile manufactures use the material data bank and it has evolved into an international benchmark for the industry.

Tips for Personal Research

The list of declarable substances used in heavy vehicles, GADSL, forms the basis of the International Material Data System. Information on the recommendations to the automobile manufacturers and statutory provisions as well as norms, pure substances and raw materials are given in our Info Point IMDS.
