Chemical management solutions

Remove hazardous chemicals from your production processes with quality documentation and management systems.

What are chemical management solutions?

Chemical management involves establishing a quality documentation system that ensures information dissemination, traceability, awareness, standardisation, safe practices and regulatory compliance. TÜV SÜD’s chemical management solutions help organisations specify measurable objectives and undertake regular checks for gap identification and analysis. If we find a gap, organisations can devise plans to close these gaps. This plan-do-check-act cycle encourages continuous improvement for organisations looking to detox their businesses.

Why chemical management solutions are important

Due to the increasing concern over chemical safety in consumer products in recent years, many countries have implemented regulations to restrict toxic substances to safeguard consumers and the environment.

Considering all this, the implementation of proper chemical management processes can give businesses a crucial edge. By taking a serious stance to eradicate hazardous chemicals from their production processes, they can gain a competitive advantage over other less sustainable businesses. Ensuring good chemical management also safeguards the company’s regulatory obligations.
