| Registration, Evaluation, Authorization,
and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) came into
effect on June 1, 2007, to streamline the EU’s
regulations on chemicals. The new controls on
chemical products are affecting manufacturers,
suppliers, importers, marketers, and downstream
users in different ways.
Various support systems are available to companies
for implementing REACH, but a grasp of the new
legislation that applies to different products
at various stages can be elusive, and fulfilling
the obligations under REACH is a challenging process.
This report can help you to overcome some of
these crucial challenges and achieve REACH compliance.
It also outlines the benefits and problems that
REACH is likely to present and illustrates the
effects of REACH with examples from selected industries,
including paper, metalworking, and lubricants.
