  • 1.  Training Suggestions - Plastics regulations

    Posted 08-Nov-2019 14:24
    Good afternoon all,

    I am looking for some training suggestions for plastics regulations both US products and products sold internationally. Training local to the New England area would be preferred. We are a small contract manufacturer specialized in custom polymer compounding and I am trying to expand the skill set of my regulatory team. 

    If there are training that could be suggested for TSCA, Reach, ROHS, SDS generation and review, import/export/packaging requirements, waste removal, etc they would be all greatly appreciated. Our main focus is the medical industry but I am open to a broad topic of regulatory requirements.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Hello Michael

    Have you taken a look at the Society for Chemical Hazard Communication?  Every spring they have their conference outside of DC, and they routinely offer training on REACH, TSCA, SDSs, etc.

    Best Regards,  Lauren
