ECHA has launched the EUCLEF platform, through which information on 40 pieces of EU chemicals legislation can now be accessed. Companies can use EUCLEF to navigate through the EU chemicals legislative framework and find relevant information on how their substances are regulated across the EU. It is intended to support SMEs in particular and the first edition inlcudes legislation on air and water quality, worker protection, pesticides, food contact materials, cosmetic products, toy safety and many more. A further 16 pieces of legislation are planned to be added to EUCLEF in 2021.
A dedicated regulatory support service has also been made available so that companies can ask questions about all the different EU chemicals legislation covered by EUCLEF.
