What are Chemicals?
A Chemical Substance is a form of matter having constant Chemical Composition and Characteristic Properties. Regulations, Guidelines and Directives improve the Protection of Human Health and the Environment through better and earlier identification of the intrinsic properties of Chemical Substances. The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) is a system that defines and classifies the Hazards of Chemical Products and communicates Health and Safety information on Labels and Safety Data Sheets. It is a voluntary agreement rather than a law which must be adopted through a suitable national or regional Legal Mechanism to ensure it becomes legally binding. Markets on the International Regulatory Landscape has its own Rules and Regulations for the Registration and Authorisation of Chemicals used in many different consumer goods and several Industry Sectors.
Law in the European Union and Great Britain
The European Union has a comprehensive Chemicals Legislation, spearheaded by Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) and European Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on Classification, Labelling and Packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP). They are enforced by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). In Great Britain, the Chemicals Regulation Division (CRD) is responsible for the regulation of biocides, pesticides, detergents, chemicals covered by REACH, and for compliance with the Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) Regulation.
Law in the USA and Canada
Industrial and speciality Chemicals are regulated in the United States of America under the Environmental Protection Agency’s Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The Canadian Environmental Protection Act 1999 (CEPA 1999) is the most important Chemical control Law in Canada. It is a broad act covering several subjects including the use of existing and new Chemical Substances in various industry sectors.
