News from ECHA
Integrated Regulatory Strategy achieves its goal – high production volume chemicals screened Read the final report of our Integrated Regulatory Strategy (IRS) 2019-2023.
The strategy has increased our knowledge on chemicals and sped up identification of substances for which regulatory risk management actions are required. The goal of the strategy – to screen chemicals manufactured in or imported to the EU above 100 tonnes in 2018 – was achieved.
The refocused IRS for 2024-2028 will continue moving substances to risk management. |
