REACh -
The latest information on European chemical policies

REACh stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals.

As EU regulation REACH is directly and equally valid in all member states. Here you will find current information on this regulation.

LKS Kronenberger is committed to an SME-friendly EU REACh chemical regulation.

Active involvement has already born political fruit in Hessen. For more on this please read the current newsletter of the German Central Association for Surface Technology (ZVO) and of VECCO.
