REACH, a strategic concern for Condat
Zurück
Since June 1st, 2008, the European Regulation 2006/1907/CEE, better known under the name REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization of CHemicals) officially started. The fundamental REACH concept is the risk evaluation of a substance for the user and the environment regarding its use and the implementation of appropriate means of protection.
Chemical industries are affected by this new regulation.
Regarding awareness and harmonization of the project, Condat for more than two years now, has followed the REACH regulations.
Evaluating its responsibilities:
– As manufacturer and importer of substances
– As formulator
Condat has implemented an action plan to meet the requirements and the deadlines of the statutory terms and has begun the pre-recording of manufactured and/or imported eligible substances.
REACH therefore is a key strategic element. The real variety of formulae and thus technical differentiation will be preserved only by formulators capable of anticipating well in advance the changes bound to REACH towards raw materials and of dealing with the possible unpredictability of their suppliers.
It is indeed the main objective of Condat to take all possible steps to ensure customers products are:
– In accordance with the regulation
– User- and environmentally friendly ones
– Adhering perfectly to the requirements of the operational application
Condat relies on its knowledge (notably acquired with the Biocides Directive - Directive 98 / 8 / CE), as well as on its partnerships with customers and suppliers for the best possible anticipation of the expected or future changes, so as to ensure the supply of lubricants for a long time.
Beyond the performance criteria, Condat wants to associate the continuity notion with its range of lubricants.
