Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Formulation

Contributing activity / technique for the environment
Name of activity / technique:
Formulation into additive packages
Environmental release category (ERC):
ERC2: Formulation into mixture
Contributing activity / technique for workersopen allclose all
Name of activity / technique:
Largely automated processes controlled by operators, however may involved some manual operations including manual adjustments to plant e.g. aligning pipes, opening and closing valves, switching pumps on and off, connecting/disconnecting hoses and pipelines, gauging etc
Process category (PROC):
PROC 3: Manufacture or formulation in the chemical industry in closed batch processes with occasional controlled exposure or processes with equivalent containment conditions
Name of activity / technique:
