REACH is a European Regulation (No 1907/2006) concerning chemicals and their safe use. It aims to improve the protection of human health and the environment through a system of R egistration, E valuation, A uthorisation and Restriction of C hemicals. As a European Regulation REACH applies directly in all Member States of the European Union. It also applies to Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway as member countries of the European Economic Area.
If you’re new to EU and UK REACH the best place to start is our introduction to REACH which we call “The Basics”. This will give you an overview of the REACH regulation and how that might impact on your business. We can help you understand what your obligations are and how to ensure that your company is on track.
If you have concerns about what you need to do to achieve compliance and need to know more, we offer a range of support services to help.
Many people who have to deal with the REACH regulation will also be responsible for their company’s compliance with the Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) regulation and the Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR), and our package of services can provide invaluable support for these pieces of legislation too.
