Regulated Substances Brief Provides Essential Guide to Chemicals Substances



Monthly newsletter gives customized information on Conflict Minerals, EU RoHS and EU REACH for the off-road equipment manufacturing industry and its supply chains



The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) and Compliance & Risks today announced the launch of the Regulated Substances Brief, a newsletter focusing on Conflict Minerals, EU RoHS (European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and EU REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and restriction of Chemical substances) regulations that apply to the off-road equipment manufacturing industry and its supply chain. The newsletter will inform readers about the business risks and opportunities regarding the substances involved in the products they supply.



This is an extension of the existing EU REACH Brief which was launched a year ago to help AEM members and their supply chain deal with the complex and ever-evolving EU REACH legislation. It will also cover emerging developments which could potentially impact AEM members such as China RoHS and Korea REACH.



The content of the Regulated Substances Brief is customized specifically for the off-road equipment manufacturing industry, containing news of what has changed and is scheduled to change, upcoming deadlines and analysis from industry experts, as well as case studies and feature articles from peer companies.



The Regulated Substances Brief is now available online and companies can sign up here.
