Chilworth Technology, Inc. (Chilworth) today announced that it now
provides physico-chemical testing services for Registration, Evaluation
and Authorization of Chemicals (REACH) to ensure accurate classification
for transportation of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) in the
European Union (EU). The EU REACH regulation requires that SVHC either
be declared as such and reported to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA)
or replaced by less hazardous substances.
Chilworth services help US companies that export products or substances
to the European Union identify the physico-chemical properties of SVHC.
Chilworth can ensure that a company meets all EU regulatory requirements
by providing documentation and preparation of Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
for REACH compliance. This provides assurance to customers and
regulators that REACH compliance has been attained.
"Our new REACH services are designed for US companies that have a new
substance or mixture that they plan to market in the EU, as it will help
ensure the material can be handled and transported safely within the
EU," commented Vahid Ebadat, CEO of Chilworth.
Chilworth serves clients throughout the processing industries including
agrochemicals, chemicals, engineering, food processing, government,
insurance, legal, metals, oil/gas, pharmaceuticals, plastics, rubber and
other industries. Process Safety Management (PSM) consulting services
