REACH is the cornerstone of the EU chemicals legislation. Revising REACH means changing the very foundation of the world-leading chemicals management system that we have in Europe. And with chemicals serving most value chains across Europe, the impacts of these changes can be far reaching. Our core question remains: how can REACH keep the European chemical industry’s engine of growth and innovation running at full speed while raising the bar on safety?
With this in mind, this Digital Dialogue invites the European Commission, industry, downstream users and civil society, to dive into important files and exchange on how the revision can be efficiently managed in a targeted way so that it tackles improvement areas in line with the objectives set in the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability.
We invite you to join us for this dialogue to:
- Hear more about Europe’s vision for its future chemicals management
- Deep dive into important files including polymers, Mixture Assessment Factor (MAF), Generic Approach to Risk Management (GRA) and essential use
- Exchange on the challenges, opportunities and share solutions
We are at a critical moment for European chemicals management – Join us on June 15 to contribute, learn and prepare for the future
