ABOUT SDS MANAGER

The safety software company that’s built to outlast your next audit, and your next decade.

Chemical safety is a long game. Regulations evolve, suppliers change, people come and go, but your compliance record has to hold. That’s why we’ve built SDS Manager the same way we’ve built our company for 30 years: profitable, independent, and here for the long term.

WHO STANDS BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Independent. Profitable. European-owned. Built to last.

SDS Manager is part of NetPower IT Group, privately held, founded and owned by Erlend Bruvik, with 160 specialists across Norway, the United States, Vietnam and Bangladesh, building safety and compliance software for three decades.
In 2025 group revenue passed $10 million USD, and every dollar of profit went back into our products and people. No venture capital, no outside investors, so no pressure to raise prices or cut support.

We are not for sale, and we do not intend to be. No surprise acquisition, no sunset notice, no forced migration. You have the owner’s word on it, in writing, on this page.

TRUST, VERIFIED

Don’t take our word for it. Take the auditors’.

Anyone can claim their software is secure and their processes are solid. We pay independent auditors to verify it, every year:

Quality management

Certification is the floor, not the ceiling. Beyond the annual audits, we run monthly security reviews of our entire codebase, using both independent tooling and AI-assisted analysis (including Anthropic’s Claude and OpenAI’s Codex) to catch issues before they ever reach production. Every release ships from a codebase that has been reviewed more recently than most vendors’ last annual pentest. See our certifications in full →

OUR STORY

Thirty years, four chapters

Productify. Reinvest. Repeat.

1995

The beginning.

Erlend Bruvik founds Aston Technology in Norway as an IT consultancy. Clients keep asking for software that doesn’t exist yet, so we start building it. That instinct, see a real need, build a real product, still drives everything we ship.

1998

Learning what “mission-critical” means.

We launch Stocknet, one of Norway’s first online stockbroking services, live on four European exchanges. When money moves through your software in real time, you learn speed, reliability and trust the hard way, and never unlearn them.

2000s

Into health & safety.

Industrial clients ask for help with safety and compliance, and we find a market full of paperwork and short on good software. NetPower joins the group in 2006; by 2010 our QHSE suite is in daily use across Norwegian industry, and it keeps growing into a full suite of EHS products.

2020

SDS Manager goes global.

Two decades of chemical-safety experience, rebuilt as one global platform: SDS management, authoring, retail distribution and chemical inventory, in 35 languages and 50+ countries, priced for a five-person workshop and a five-thousand-person enterprise alike. Our EHS modules run natively on the same platform.
