Dow Innovation Helps EU Importers with REACH Registration Compliance
Under some specific conditions, the Dow ORT can offer to use the Dow registrations to cover under REACH the so called ‘indirect imports” of Dow substances by European Union (EU) importers. To ensure confidentiality of customers’ business information, Dow has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers Advisory N.V. in the Netherlands to operate as the Trustee. With the Only Representative Trustee solution, Dow would enable its selected direct non-EU customers and indirect EU customers (importers) to avoid excessive REACH compliance costs.
Thanks to the Dow ORT it can be much easier for EU importers within Dow’s supply chain to see their REACH registration obligations covered, according to the company. Dow is dedicated to the principles of Responsible Care as demonstrated by its 2015 Sustainability Goals, which set a strong pace for the company. These goals aim to help focus on strengthening relationships, continuing to improve product stewardship and reducing the global footprint. Meeting the goal of Product Safety Commitment is moving Dow forward. A key element in meeting that commitment is compliance with REACH.
