Press Release: EDA launches a portal on national exemptions from REACH obligations in the interest of defence

The REACH Regulation imposes obligations on producers or importers but also users of chemicals, which includes the defence sector. The new REACH Portal, launched by the European Defence Agency (EDA) in October 2010, allows Member States, European citizens and industry to have access to information on national policies and procedures for granting defence exemptions to the Regulation.
