CEPE guideline on downstream communication of raw material

This CEPE guide is one of a number of support and information documents prepared by CEPE’s REACH expert groups, which are intended to help CEPE members deal with specific aspects of the REACH Regulation. The guidance draws on the provisions of the Regulation, and takes into account both ECHA and industry interpretations and guidance on this particular issue.

This document is intended to be a practical guide, which sets out the options and action to take to fulfil a coatings or ink manufacturer’s obligation to communicate to customers the information contained in received exposure scenarios. The guidance aims to be practical and avoids reproducing text from the REACH Regulation, although references are given to the relevant articles and annexes, and associated guidance documents, for users wishing to consult the source information.
