3 Agenda history Buckman REACH Safety Data Sheets (e)sds within Buckman VLARIP Lessons learnt Future challenges 3

4 history Impact of REACH on Buckman on all 3 levels defined by REACH : as manufacturer of substances as importer of substances (BL affiliates, non-eu suppliers) as downstream-user of substances 4

5 history REACH Team Buckman Europe Main contacts : General REACH reach@buckman.com Raf Leyman Regulatory Affairs Manager rleyman@buckman.com Tim Hayaert Regulatory Affairs Coordinator - REACH thayaert@buckman.com 5

6 history Follow-up on legislation Industrial associations: CEFIC - Brussels (European Chemical Federation) essenscia - Brussels (Belgian Chemical Federation) Member of VLARIP projects 1 & 2 Theme meetings 6

7 history Preparing for REACH at Buckman Substance Inventory Pre-registration Decision making registration Mapping of uses (DU)... 7

8 history Preparing for REACH at Buckman Internal communication Depending on issues related to REACH and publication of different Guidance Documents => involvement of Supply Chain, Production, Sales/Marketing Management, Technical Management, IT, Finance, Regulatory Affairs, Buckman affiliates, => Create ad-hoc working groups => Create global REACH Team 8

9 Buckman REACH Safety Data Sheets SDS software upgrade project ( ) : December 2010 : SDS according to new REACH Annex II format (EC453/2010) for substances and for new or updated preparations September 2011 : launch of all SDS according to new REACH Annex II format (EC453/2010) for all marketed mixtures, with anticipated CLP clas sification in section 16 9

10 Buckman REACH Safety Data Sheets Mixtures: Section 16 contains the anticipated CLP classification (not legally binding)

11 (e)sds within Buckman DU Main Obligations (ECHA Guidance for DU 1.1.) 1. Follow instructions in SDS + exposure scenario(es) If use not covered by ES: Contact supplier Own CSR 2. Contact supplier when new information on hazards is available or when RMM s are unappropriate 3. Provide customers information on hazards, safe conditions and RMM s

12 (e)sds within Buckman How to handle first e-sds 140 pages?!? : curious to see, but afraid to read Vlarip theme meetings on Reading e-sds Goals & expectations : Reading & understanding Implementation in the company Communication Downstream

13 (e)sds within Buckman Action points (Themafiche Vlarip extended SDS) Check if substance has been registered RRN Analyse SDS for new data (RA + OPS + SHEQ) Check if our uses are corresponding to the ES s If not: Contact supplier Implement RMM s and OC s Stop use of material Communication Downstream of new info Communication!

14 (e)sds within Buckman Kick off meeting December Goals : 1. Awareness of e-sds concept 2. Legal obligations 3. Impact on different departments 4. Establishing workflow 5. Assigning responsibilities

15 Buckman flow created based on draft Cefic doc Process in companies after receiving an (extended SDS)

16 Buckman RA + PUR + LAB + OPS + SHEQ + PM + FSC

17 (e)sds within Buckman Further approach in handling e-sds : Gathering/Assign date of receipt of all e-sds + determine 12-month dead-line Evaluated prioritised e-sds Continue learning process following Vlarip e- SDS Theme meetings, involving Process Engineer

18 VLARIP Lessons learnt Pragmatic approach Involve right people New parameters on ES related to default values used in models (e.g. LEV 95% efficient) Scaling requires expertise Communication with your supplier = important Evaluation of OC s & RMM s was already required before Use of Vlarip tool : Compliance check ext-sds

19 VLARIP Lessons learnt Use of Vlarip tool : Compliance check ext-sds Example NEP Communication with your supplier = important Example

20 VLARIP Lessons learnt Procedures in place : 1. NPIP New Product Introduction Procedure 2. SDS flow incoming new/updated SDS 3. LC flow impact on Buckman SDS

21 Future challenges Continue the Learning Curve Optimisation of e-sds flow e-sds of most RMs still to be expected RMs = low volume + mixtures e-sds for mixtures Follow Theme meeting Expert judgement required Pragmatic approach required

22 REACH... A never ending story? Continue the Learning Curve... final prep + submission REACH 2013 dossiers queue of 2018 applicants, not being actively involved yet in REACH process of which a lot of SME s PROCESS OF CONTINUOUS SUPPORT REQUIRED

23 REACH... A never ending story? VLARIP 2-project comes to an end REACH still ongoing for some time Industry still needs further assistance... VLARIP... A never ending story!!!
