Solutions for Europe’s REACH Regulation

The long-awaited EU REACH Regulation (EC) No.1907/2006 was published on the 18th of December 2006—setting out new requirements for the control of chemicals throughout the EU. While some provisions came into force on June 1st 2007, the majority of the provisions were delayed until June 1st 2008, June 1st 2009, with a final provision to be implemented in 2018.

Rules-Based Regulatory Document Generation

Atrion helps companies meet REACH Legislation requirements by providing software and services that not only ensure product compliance but that also enable the generation of rules-based regulatory documents by leveraging Atrion’s Product Compliance Solution.

At the core of Atrion’s Product Compliance Solution lies our regulatory compliance engine. As a recognized valuable tool within the formula-based process industry, Atrion’s regulatory content engine includes functionalities like the generation of a 'use based' extended REACH Safety Data Sheet (SDS) in multiple languages eliminating the need to re-enter the 'hazard' and 'exposure' profile of every product.

With data submission requirements of REACH and other legislations, IUCLID 5 will play a central role. To ensure consistency between substance data submitted for registration and information communicated in the supply chain on the REACH eSDS, Atrion’s bi-directional data exchange interface with IUCLID 5 “REACHexchange®” is available.

Supply Chain Communication

Do You Know Your Suppliers’ REACH Registration Intentions?

The lack of knowledge about whether or not your suppliers intend to register substances impacted by REACH can have serious consequences on your business. Can you count on your supplier to register? Will you need to change your supplier? Will you need to change your formula? Will you need to register the substances yourself? These are some of the possible registration scenarios that could impact your business. Understanding the intent of your supplier is critical.

Additionally, communication with downstream users is also required to identify how your product is used in order to develop and provide the appropriate Exposure Scenarios (ES) that are included in the eSDS and the registration dossier.

Regulatory Services

Our Regulatory Services consultants can assist with the preparation of Substance Portfolio Analysis, a critical activity to help analyze supply chains and the impact of substances for REACH Pre-Registration and Registration. Customized Training Seminars or Webinars on REACH and IUCLID are also provided.

Working with Atrion, you will have access to a regulatory partner actively.
