A Brief Guide to REACH


31 October 2008

New EU regulations demand that all chemicals manufactured or imported into the EU must be registered. This registration must also include information on every use to which the chemical is put. If the chemical and its use have not been registered it cannot legally be manufactured, imported or used. 

To throw light on the situation the RSC has published "A Brief Guide to REACH: What You Need to Know".

The publication is available free of charge.
