ASTM International published a standard to help assist industry with a communication tool in order to comply with the European Union (EU) Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals (REACH) regulation.
ASTM F 2725 - Standard Guide for European Union's Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals (REACH) Supply Chain Information Exchange will assist companies that manufacture, buy or sell, or both, substances, preparations and articles to ensure that supply chains comply with the REACH regulation by identifying the specific elements of information that must be specified, requested and exchanged in communication between actors in the supply chain.
ASTM F 2725 provides step-by-step instruction throughout the inventory process including planning and processing orders; handling; and transporting and storing of all materials purchased, processed or distributed among players on the chain to fulfill compliance requirements.
The standard also includes case studies to show the process of exchanging data for three representative scenarios.
The standard was developed by Subcommittee F40.02 on Management Practices and Guides, part of ASTM Committee F40 on Declarable Substances in Materials.
