Hazardous Substances

The use of hazardous substances requires compliance with stringent safety regulations, both during use and elimination. Any substance that can be deemed hazardous to people or the environment is subject to its own strict code of regulations. At SGS, we have experience and expertise in a wide range of industries and sectors that enables us to advise you comprehensively about your hazardous substances management systems.

Using directives from WEEE (Waste electrical and electronic equipment), IECEE (IEC System for Conformity testing and Certification of Electrotechnical Equipment and Components) and IECQ HSPM 080000 (Hazardous Substances Process Management) we can help you to manage your hazardous substances safely and comprehensively. Requirements demanded by RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) and other national and global standards need to be applied in order for organizations to be part of global supply chains. We offer testing, verification and certification services to enable you to participate with the assurance that your hazardous substance management systems are fully compliant.

Our specialist safety teams are based all over the world, and have experience of every industry and sector to bring you a service you can trust to make sure that your hazardous substance management meets all of the directives and regulations required.
