REACH-SERVICES FOR EU, US,
CHINA, JAPAN & KOREA
All companies that export chemicals from outside Europe (including Switzerland) to the EU must either set up their own EU branch in order to meet the REACH requirements or they must pass on extensive confidential information to their customers so that they can meet the REACH obligations as manufacturers/importers. The alternative would be to lose customers and therefore profit.
The new principle in the EU is: No data, no registration – no registration, no market.
There is an alternative: you can avoid the above-mentioned negative consequences by using an only representative, which is anchored in the law: Your Only Representative will treat all your data as strictly confidential and can carry out all the necessary steps in the REACH process for you, thus securing your markets.
The only representative assumes all obligations under the REACH Regulation for manufacturers not established in the Community, starting with pre-registration and registration, the preparation of the relevant documents such as the chemical safety report and the preparation of the extended REACH safety data sheet. He must also keep and update information on the quantities imported and importers supplied.
