Compliance with REACH and GHS is no simple task. Companies are likely to seek assistance from a number of consultants and/or service providers throughout various adoption and implementation phases. There is no single "REACH Solution" or “GHS package” that can be purchased that takes care of all aspects; however, companies should seek assistance from providers who are well-versed in data and information as it relates to global EH&S regulations and who thoroughly understand the EU regulatory environment.
3E Company has spent more than two decades helping customers understand chemical, regulatory and compliance management. Data, information and professional expertise are at the very core of all the products and services we deliver. REACH and GHS are no exception. 3E Company offers a unique combination of tools and services that can help companies in various areas of compliance related activities including:
Ariel™ chemical and regulatory data fuels all the REACH and GHS support 3E Company offers. Ariel Content consists of a massive, aggregated collection of lists, legislation and compliance guides for regulated chemicals throughout the world at multiple levels of jurisdiction. Lists of chemicals and substances will continue to be included as they are published by ECHA as well as physical, chemical, toxicological and eco-toxicological data as it is submitted and accumulated. This data can be fed into your existing system, such as SAP® EH&S, SciQuest™, CISPro and others. The text of the regulation itself, as well as REACH lists of chemical substances, are available in Ariel WebInsight™, our online chemical regulatory compliance reference tool. Ariel REACH content can be used to categorize and identify substances, identify exemptions and as lists are published, search if a chemical is on a list or not.
