Publication Date 11/05/2011
Content Type

Certain information from the registration dossiers that is contained in the Safety Data Sheet, including the names of registrants, will be published on the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) dissemination web section in the future. Companies will be able to keep this information confidential, provided that a valid justification is given and accepted by ECHA.

This extension of ECHA’s dissemination practice follows a legal interpretation by the European Commission Services and the advice of its Management Board. The opinion of the Commission Services states that, in particular, the name of a registrant is part of the information to be disseminated by the Agency, as it is contained in the Safety Data Sheet.
