Identifying and Managing Chemical Risks<\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Within our industrial activities, we use substances and other chemicals in our steel production processes. This is why, in an ongoing effort to protect both public health and health in the workplace not to mention to protect the environment, our steelworks religiously monitors any changes to the REACH regulations<\/strong> regarding the registration, assessment, authorisation and restrictions of chemical substances.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”middle” bg_type=”bg_color” css=”.vc_custom_1588261450431{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}” el_class=”custom-animate”][vc_column css_animation=”none” width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1588261267530{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-right: 15% !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;padding-left: 15% !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1593093106664{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]This European regulation provides a legislative framework<\/strong> enabling the standardisation of information and transparency to be established within the EU. It encourages manufacturers to identify and manage risks<\/strong> associated with the production and use of certain chemical substances (in our case, metals). These substances are therefore better controlled<\/strong> and, in the event of a hazardous situation, can be subjected to significant restrictions.<\/p>\n

The objective, of course, is to instil more accountability on European industry, whilst also allowing it to evolve, innovate and be competitive<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”664″ img_size=”800×800″ alignment=”center” css_animation=”fadeInUp”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The REACH regulations also aim to do the following:[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row gap=”30″ equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” css=”.vc_custom_1588057818520{margin-bottom: 100px !important;}” el_class=”custom-animate”][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInUp” width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1586518027855{border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;padding-top: 30px !important;padding-right: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;border-left-color: rgba(36,41,45,0.15) !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: rgba(36,41,45,0.15) !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: rgba(36,41,45,0.15) !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: rgba(36,41,45,0.15) !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1593093122602{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
