China Reach and GHS compliance seminar –distribution of chemical products in the Chinese market

Feb. 26th, 2014

Hamburg


Overview


For the past 20 years, the world has seen the exponential growth in China’s economy. Following such marvelous achievement is the rising concern within different business sectors, which pushes the country’s legislative system to stress more upon environment, health and safety issues. Chemical industry is one of those that receive keen attention. With significant contribution to GDP, it also leads to massive pollutions and numerous accidents across the whole country. To cope with this situation, a series of new regulations have come into force, including China New Chemical Substance Notification (A.K.A China Reach), China Hazardous Chemical Registration etc., while the adoption of UN GHS has also been demonstrated in various regulatory documentations.
In order to bring EU clients a better understanding of the latest development of China’s chemical legislation, as well as delivering knowledge for compliance solutions, REACH24H together with its counterpart—UMCO in Germany, have set to extend a seminar this February, aiming to provide new insights and information of relevant EHS affairs.
