20 Apr Chemicals Legislation Finder
The European Chemicals Agency’s (ECHA) new online service, the EU Chemicals Legislation Finder (EUCLEF), gives organisations access to a free-of-charge overview of 40 pieces of EU chemicals legislation they may need to comply with.
11 March 2020
With the launch of EUCLEF, information on 40 pieces of EU chemicals legislation is now easily accessible in one place, bringing clarity to organisations, in particular for SMEs, on which pieces of legislation apply to their substances.
Integrated into ECHA’s chemicals database, organisations can use EUCLEF to navigate through the EU chemicals legislative framework and find relevant information on how their substances are regulated across the EU. This will give businesses a better understanding of the obligations they might have so they can ensure they are legally on the market.
The first version of the finder covers legislation dealing with air and water quality, worker protection, pesticides, food contact materials, cosmetic products, toy safety and many more. A further 16 pieces of legislation are planned to be added to EUCLEF in 2021.
A dedicated regulatory support service has also been made available so that companies can ask questions about all the different EU chemicals legislation covered by EUCLEF.
EUCLEF is funded by the EU Programme for Competitiveness of Enterprises and Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (COSME).
