The European REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and restriction of Chemicals), regulation came into force on 1 June 2007 and is already fundamentally changing the shape of every manufacturing supply chain within the EU and those that export chemicals and goods into the EU.

• Introduction to REACH

• Obligations REACH places on chemical manufacturers and importers in the EU
