The European Chamber is delighted to invite its members to take part free of charge in the "REACH Workshop, Asia 2010" on 20th September 2010 in Hangzhou.
2010 is a crucial time for both EU REACH and China REACH - "Measures on the Environmental Management of New Chemicals (Decree No. 7 of MEP)". In 2010, EU REACH will meet its 1st registration deadline on Nov. 30th, while the newly amended China REACH will enter into force on Oct. 15th.
For many chemical companies in China and even the whole Asia, there are certain communication problems between industrial companies and with EU REACH authorities, SIEFs and consortia. A Common issue of numerous chemical companies is how to choose an optimal set of strategies for EU REACH Registration and how to keep effective and efficient communication along the supply chain to guarantee long term regulatory compliance after registration.
Since Oct. 15th 2010, more requirements are put into China REACH regulation, with one of the key amendments disallowing non-Chinese companies in notifying their new substances to the CRC and having to appoint a Chinese legal entity to act as their Only Representatives. Manufacturers or importers shall ensure compliance with this amended regulation implemented by Ministry of Environmental Protection of the PRC before placing new chemicals on the Chinese market.
Therefore, to act as a bridge between companies and the government (both ECHA and CRC-MEP), and to help companies successfully export products to EU or China market with positive attitude and scientific strategies are urgent obligations of Only Representatives (ORs).
