This event will be of value to business and regulatory managers and specialists working in companies that use chemicals bought from within the EU/UK (downstream users in REACH speak!) who want to find out more about how to ensure their products comply. This workshop will be of particular interest to those companies who are classed as “downstream users”, and who do not have a direct obligation to register.
This course works best with 6 or more participants.
REACH affects all chemical substances that are manufactured and imported and that you use to make your products and to run your processes.
If you use a chemical substance, either on its own or in a preparation, in the course of your business activities you are a downstream user under EU/GB REACH. Many downstream users have been overwhelmed by complex requests from their customers asking for a great deal of information about the chemicals they buy, arguing that REACH requires it. It’s true that REACH expects the supply chain to be the route for information exchange and there are some very definite obligations that must be respected. This workshop should help everyone understand what they must do as part of complying with EU/GB REACH, and what they may choose to do as part of their customer service.
This workshop will be of particular interest to those companies who are classed as “downstream users”, and who do not have a direct obligation to register.
A one day workshop aimed to give you an understanding of your duties under both EU and GB CLP, as well as practical skills to help you classify and label your products correctly.
