Notes to editors
The European Union’s REACH Regulation came into force in 2007 and replaced the previous risk assessment system for chemicals in the EU. REACH stands for Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals and aims to improve the protection of human health and the environment from the risks that can be posed by chemicals.
