Hazardous Materials Environmental Regulations

Another challenge to the world’s most highly regulated industry – hazardous substances environmental regulations.

There is a widely-held myth that pharmaceuticals, biotechnology and medical devices are exempt from RoHS, REACH, Proposition 65 or other similar environmental regulations.

You have received your CE mark, USFDA 510k or Canadian Medical Device License; your quality system has been registered to CMDCAS and EN/ISO harmonized standards; your design dossier has been reviewed and approved, you have complied with dozens of international, regional and harmonized standards and guidelines and you still cannot get market access… why? Because your product is not exempt and you have been asked to supply environmental compliance documentation!
