A change is REACHed for nanomaterials
Start: 13:00 GMT | End: 14:00 GMT
In December 2018, the long-awaited update to REACH intended to more explicitly account for nanomaterials formally entered the statute book. This update introduces new concepts, could require extensive updates to registration dossiers for some registrants and may impact on actors further down the supply chain.
Topics discussed during the webinar:
- How nanomaterials are covered in the EU with an emphasis on new developments
- An overview of EU Regulations with relevance for nanomaterials
- EC’s definition of the term ‘nanomaterial’
- Provisions for nanomaterials in REACH
- European regulation on chemicals and its amended annexes with new requirements on how to register and which information to provide on ‘nanoforms’
- Review of nanospecific provisions in other sector-specific regulations, e.g. biocides, food, cosmetics and medical devices
After attending the webinar you will be able to:
- Understand how REACH has been updated
- Identify whether your registration dossier needs to be updated and which of your products require attention
- Recognise and commission the correct studies to meet your obligations
- Assess the alternatives to commissioning new studies
- Appreciate how other EU regulations handle nanomaterials
