FEICA, the Association of the European Adhesive and Sealant Industry, has published Use Maps to help registrants understand how substances are typically handled in this industry, and to support Chemical Safety Assessments under REACH that reflect relevant and realistic information on adhesives and sealants.
Farbe und Lack, the German edition of the European Coatings Journal (ECJ), has published FEICA's article "Musterhaft kleben und dichten" on Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) in their October Issue.
In the article, Jana Cohrs, Regulatory Affairs Manager at FEICA, explains how the EU Model EPDs leads to significant cost and time savings for companies.
A joint statement titled "Improving the safe use of chemicals in Europe through excellence in supply chain communication" was signed on 6 October 2016 by DUCC, ECHA and CEFIC.
Accurate and clear information on the conditions of safe use of chemicals generated and communicated along the supply chain is essential in ensuring the successful implementation of the European Union’s REACH Regulation. To that end, DUCC, ECHA and CEFIC acknowledge the crucial role that sector use maps play in achieving excellence in supply chain communication.
Please see the ECHA and CEFIC communications for more info.
FEICA (as part of DUCC) will continue promoting the tools and raising awareness among downstream industry organisations to produce sector use maps to support registrants in generating meaningful exposure scenarios.
