This is a product, not a single substance
Mineral spirits is a formulated product / mixture. Its hazard profile depends on the exact formulation, so there is no single harmonised classification we could honestly show here — the authoritative document is the SDS issued by the manufacturer of the specific product you purchased. Use the supplier links above to obtain it.
MSDS vs SDS
MSDS vs SDS: is there a difference?
MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) is the older name for the same document. In the US, OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (2012) adopted the GHS-standardised 16-section Safety Data Sheet; in the EU the format is set by REACH Annex II. So a "mineral spirits MSDS" and a "mineral spirits SDS" refer to the same document — today it is issued as an SDS. Full breakdown of the differences →

Reference aid only. This page summarises the harmonised EU classification and computed storage guidance — it is not a Safety Data Sheet and does not replace one. Always verify hazards, handling and storage against the supplier's SDS (sections 7 and 10) and local regulations before use. Page updated 2026-07-27.
Frequently asked questions
Is an MSDS the same as an SDS?

A document you find labelled "mineral spirits MSDS" is today issued as an SDS.
