Brenntag is at your service

Brenntag as a full-line distributor covers various roles in the chemical supply chain and therefore is involved by REACH within several aspects. As a Distributor in the sense of REACH Brenntag has to fulfill its obligations with regards to communication; as a formulator Brenntag is a Downstream User and has to comply with the obligations under REACH (make sure own uses are covered in registration, apply recommended risk management measures) and finally Brenntag is a manufacturer and a direct Importer of substances and therefore it has to fulfill obligations as a registrant.

 

To appropriately cover these tasks requires REACH involvement on all operational levels (HSE, Sales and Procurement) and a strong internal interaction and alignment. Brenntag looks at REACH as an opportunity to serve own customers and suppliers. Brenntag has been involved in REACH since the white paper proposal in 2003.
