ECHA: 4 priorities for the future of REACh, what do you think?

ECHA aims to become the main source of advice and knowledge of chemical products in order to protect and protect man and the environment.

The priorities will be:

  1. Identification of worrying substances and risk management: by 2025, all the worrisome substances will be identified and subject to regulatory action. After 31 May 2018 ECHA will have a vision of the disturbing substances placed on the market and will require companies to provide more information to ensure the safe use of chemicals.
  2. Safe and sustainable use of chemicals from industry: communication along the supply chain through recognized tools and formats
  3. Management of chemicals in a sustainable way by applying EU legislation
