opportunities linked to the changing marketplace stemming from
REACH.

get the information and outcomes you require.

into the future.

Benefit from detailed technical appendices, describing:

REACH implementation projects (RIPs).

-- The forthcoming Globally Harmonised System (GHS) of chemicals
classification and labelling.

-- How to put together an intelligent testing strategy that
minimises data requirements.
