REACh is the European Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals. Having entered into force on 1st June 2007, it streamlines and improves the former legislative framework on chemicals of the European Union (EU). The main aims of REACh are to improve the protection of human health and the environment from the risks that can be posed by chemicals. Furthermore REACh enhances the promotion of alternative test methods, the free circulation of substances on the internal market and fosters competitiveness and innovation. REACh makes industry responsible for assessing and managing the risks posed by chemicals and providing appropriate safety information to their users. In parallel, the European Union can take additional measures on highly dangerous substances, where there is a need for complementing action at EU level.

A special task force has been built up to coordinate all REACH activities within the Baerlocher group of companies. Although the REACH legislation has entered into force and the two registration deadlines have passed some details need further clarification. A lot of guidelines have been published and updated, but further explanations and interpretations are needed. Baerlocher observes the REACH environment carefully. We are actively participating in national and international working groups (e.g. VCI, ESPA, APAG). We have pre-registered all of our manufactured or imported substances to guarantee the transition periods until 2018. It is our intention to register our products as much as possible. In this context we are in close contact with our suppliers to ensure that the purchased materials will be registered as well. If certain substances will be phased out, we shall inform our customers accordingly.
