Reducing the time & cost to meet your chemical product needs

If your company is looking at EDI as part of a just-in-time (JIT) inventory program or as part of an overall supply chain reengineering effort, you've come to the right place. Univar has been helping our customers implement EDI-based order management programs for almost a decade. EDI-based business with Univar amounts to over $100 million annually. As an active member of CIDX (the group that sets EDI standards for the Chemical Industry) we helped pioneer the use of the material safety data sheets (MSDS) EDI transaction.

A wide range of customer EDI services

Univar handles the EDI transactions customers need: purchase orders, purchase order changes, and electronic invoices. We also can help you fulfill your electronic funds transfer (EFT) requirements. Our experienced EDI specialists help our customers and trading partners implement these transactions, and handle specialized EDI requests with ease.

EDI made easy

Our fully integrated, standards-based EDI system enables us to work with most of the major purchasing systems in the marketplace including SAP, Oracle, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, and Marcam. We receive and transmit EDI transactions hourly throughout the business day, electronically routing them to your local Univar branch. This process ensures we can meet your JIT delivery requirements. Univar understands the cost and the benefit of electronic data interchange, and will help focus your EDI efforts.
