REACH Antwerp 2009

This conference will provide an opportunity to assess the current status of the regulations and to learn from a wide range of organisations just how the regulations are working and what actions industry has taken to ensure compliance. REACH, (Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals) is one of the most important pieces of Producer Responsibility legislation to impact the European chemical industry and its supply chains. The legislation not only has major ramifications for chemical manufacturers, it also affects materials formulators and even end-users of chemical products. The complexities of the European Union’s controversial flagship chemicals policy will be tackled in depth at Smithers Rapra’s fifth conference dedicated to REACH.
