Chemity paves the way through complex information
Ensuring compliance with EU regulatory requirements for products can be a complex and time-consuming endeavor – yet, it doesn’t have to be. Chemity streamlines and simplifies the process, guaranteeing you always stay updated with the most recent legislation. Furthermore, our team of experts is on hand to provide dedicated support and guidance whenever you need it.
Correct legal
requirements for the product
The EU currently has extensive product-related legislation, making it a challenge to accurately identify and interpret the legal requirements applicable to a specific product. At the same time, the European Commission plans to introduce over 30 new product legislations by 2030 as part of the EU’s Green Deal. This will heighten the need to identify the correct legal requirements and stay updated on changes. This is precisely one of Chemity’s key functions.
Both the collection and evaluation of information require various specialist knowledge, including understanding which substances and substance categories are classified as hazardous, in which materials the regulated substances may occur, and how to read and interpret information from suppliers, such as analysis protocols and declarations.
There is also a need for knowledge about which substances are necessary to provide the product with various functions, such as flame retardants, softeners, pigments, and water- and dirt-repellent properties, and how to replace hazardous substances with less hazardous ones. If the company lacks this expertise internally, external expert assistance is needed.
Information
from the entire supply chain
A significant challenge for companies aiming to comply with legal requirements is the necessity to manage product information for thousands of components. This information comes from a complex supply chain of manufacturers and distributors, many of which are often based outside the European Union’s jurisdiction.
Chemity offers a unique solution by enabling the automated collection of information from multiple stages within the supply chain. This distinctive feature sets Chemity apart. Additionally, it provides robust support for managing customer information and inquiries, all seamlessly integrated directly into the system.
- Chemity automates the request, collection, and storage of key information from your suppliers, like chemical content, certifications, and SCIP-numbers.
- Requests to suppliers are sent from your own email address.
- A built-in chat feature enables effective communication with your suppliers about products.
- The system allows suppliers to forward your requests up the supply chain without disclosing their information, enhancing the accuracy of responses.
Components, suppliers, and subcontractors are often changed, which means that the information quickly becomes out of date. At the same time, new substances are regularly added to chemical legislation, such as REACH, typically every six months. This requires that the information must be constantly updated.
Manually managing all contacts in the email inbox and monitoring responses to supplier inquiries is not only labor-intensive but also heavily reliant on individual effort. Moreover, handling all the information requires some form of database, and standard business systems are usually not equipped to manage this type of product information.
With Chemity, you can unify the entire supply chain under a single system.
What sets Chemity apart is its comprehensive information flow model, which covers the full supply chain all the way to the supplier with firsthand knowledge of the content. In contrast to other market solutions that offer visibility only one step back in the supply chain, Chemity is designed for the reality of complex supply chains that may consist of up to 5-6 tiers.
To simplify the process of gathering information from the supply chain, responding must be both straightforward and secure for all parties involved. Therefore, all suppliers in the supply chain are provided with a limited free license. This license allows them to either respond to inquiries about origin and content themselves or to pass the request on to their suppliers. The next supplier in the supply chain is offered the same options, facilitating the collection of requested information at every stage of the supply chain.
Each supplier only sees their own segment of the supply chain, namely their own customers and suppliers, ensuring confidentiality is maintained throughout all levels of the supply chain.
