REACH Implementation Project 1 (RIP 1)

REACH Process description

RIP 1 explains the processes and procedures set out in the initial Commission REACH Proposal from 2003, aiming at helping industry, authorities and policy makers to better understand it.

Flowcharts provide an overview of the main procedures under REACH and of the main stakeholder roles and duties - at a glance.

A detailed process description explains in detail the processes of Registration, Information through the Supply Chain, Downstream users, Evaluation, Authorisation, Restrictions and the Classification and Labelling Inventory.

Furthermore, a set of Questions and Answers and 'REACH in brief' was developed.
