What do you need to register

All umcs have a central digital register that meets the legal requirements for the registration of hazardous substances. The management of the register and the safety information from the NFU Hazardous Substances Database may differ per umc. The register of hazardous substances provides input for the quantities of hazardous substances purchased and quantities of hazardous waste disposed of. 

Your umc must regulate who includes new substances in the registration and information system for hazardous substances and how this is managed.  

The register must contain at least the following information for each hazardous substance: 

  • name of the substance (product name) and identification data 
  • composition of the substance or mixture 
  • hazard category and/or additional information 
  • H and P statements 
  • quantities 
  • location or department where the substance occurs
