Lessons will be learnt from REACH survey

A study will be conducted to assess the impact of REACH on the operation of the single market and the competitiveness of the European chemicals industry, carried out by the European Commission.

The idea is to get a feel for how competitive the European market is post REACH, and also to get an idea of the costs of it’s administration.

The survey is addressed to:
•manufacturers and importers of chemical substances
•downstream users, distributors of chemicals and
•other firms involved in the different stages of the chemicals supply chain that may be affected by the REACH Regulation.

The link to the survey webpage is: http://cses.co.uk/reach_survey . The survey has been translated to 22 European languages. Respondents have until the 15th July 2011 to reply to the survey.

If you need more information on the purposes of the study please do not hesitate to get in contact a member of the H2 Compliance team.
