REACH Regulation
REACH stands for Registration, Evaluation, and Authorisation of Chemicals. It is the EU Chemical legislation which came into force on 1 June 2007.
The aim of REACH is to improve the protection of human health and the environment by identification of the intrinsic properties of chemical substances. At the same time, innovative capability and competitiveness of the EU chemicals industry should be enhanced.
The REACH Regulation gives responsibility to industry to manage the risks from chemicals and to provide safety information on the substances used in the plant. Manufacturers and importers of substances in the EU will be required to gather information on the properties of their chemical substances, which will allow their safe handling, and to register the information in a central database run by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) in Helsinki.
