If you are a producer exporting products containing chemicals to the European Union, you face a big challenge in the coming years. REACH, the new EU Chemicals Regulation has major impact on your company and the timeline is tight.
On 30 November 2008, all chemicals used or produced must be pre-registered, either by your EU clients or by a legal entity of your company in the EU. If not, the EU may close its market to your products.
The best solution to avoid this from happening is to appoint or create this legal entity, termed an ‘Only Representative' (OR).
PricewaterhouseCoopers and Royal Haskoning have together set up the REACH Shared Service Desk, a ready-made and fully equipped Only Representative, over which you would have total control. With this facility, you can register or pre-register a substance in plenty of time and safeguard your products' access to the EU market. Explore this website to find out more about this service, or contact us for more information.
