The REACH regulation stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals in the European Union. The regulation is based on a precautionary philosophy, i.e., in the absence of knowledge of the properties of a chemical substance and the risks arising therefrom, the chemical substance is considered hazardous, potentially posing a risk to human safety and health, to the life and health of animals and plants and to the environment, and therefore experimental studies and risk analyses are conducted, and proof is obtained that the substance is not hazardous before the substance is deemed to be safe;
