We are aware of our potential impacts generated by the unlawful usage of substances of concern and substances of very high concern. For this reason and in compliance with the applicable laws and regulations (CE/1907/2006 – REACH regulation), we have defined strict procedures on the management of these substances. Where substitution is not possible, a derogation process must be initiated in accordance with the provisions of the procedure “CMR mixture/substances derogation”. According to this procedure, we require users to seek a non-hazardous substitute material and specific prevention and protection measures are put into place.

The Environmental Practice includes pollution prevention as a key principle to manage IROs.
