United States TSCA

Meeting your requirements under TSCA

The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) of 1976 is the key U.S. law governing chemical substances. TSCA applies to any chemical substance manufactured, processed, distributed in commerce, used or disposed of in the U.S. Substances within a chemical mixture, mixtures of chemical substances, and to mixtures and individual chemical substances within articles are all regulated under TSCA.

A recent amendment to the TSCA law, known as the Frank. R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act, was enacted in June 2016. One of the key reforms under the LCSA amendment is the ‘Inventory Reset’. To comply companies must identify any chemicals that were manufactured, imported or processed during the ten years prior to enactment of the 2016 amendments to the EPA. Since then, the EPA have received over 80,000 notifications which they designated as ‘Active’ on the revised TSCA Inventory. The revised Inventory List was published in early 2019. If you wish to market a substance in the U.S. and it is not on the Inventory List, we can help you assess your options and pave the path for compliance.

Occupational Safety and Health Act

The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) of 1970 was enacted to assure safe and healthful working conditions for workers. OSHA sets and enforces protective workplace safety and health standards such as procedures for hazard communication (known as HazCom 2012, which incorporates GHS) standards for personal protective equipment and Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs), for example.
