REACH Testing

REACH Testing identifies risk management measures for companies which use chemicals and advises best practice to ensure their safe use. REACh stands for Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals. The EU regulation on REACH Testing came into force on 1st June 2007 with the aim of placing increased responsibility on industries to protect the environment & human health. There are more than 30,000 chemicals in use today in every day household products. Under REACh these chemicals are required to be registered in a database administered by the European Chemicals Agency.
