ECHA has published new web pages with improved access to relevant information to support companies preparing for the REACH registration deadline of 31 May 2018. This registration deadline concerns substances manufactured or imported in low volumes, 1 to 100 tonnes per year.
The registration process has been divided into seven phases and each phase has its own web page. Each of these pages provides key information, practical tips for registrants, and links to further information relevant for that phase. ECAH has paid special atention to ensure that the content is understandable also to small and medium-sized enterprises. The links lead to three levels of reading: getting started, essential reading, and going deeper. The new web pages are available in 23 EU languages.
ECHA will continue to work together with its stakeholders to simplify IT-tools, processes, and support to help companies, in particular small and medium-sized enterprises, to meet their duties under REACH. ECHA, for example, they plan a new series of webinars organized for registrants.
