Innovation Since 2007
Protecting human health and the environment lies at the heart of EcoMundo’s two core businesses:
Providing regulatory and scientific expertise to companies needing to comply with complex European regulations, inclu-ding REACH, ROHS, GHS/CLP, (M)SDS, Biocides, etc.
Developing innovative solutions for industrial ecodesign that facilitate the choice of environmentally-friendly processes and materials.
Specialties and Innovative Services
2. Software Design: REACH Factory 1. Chemical Regulatory Expertise
EcoMundo has developed a software suite called REACH Factory to aid users in attaining full REACH compliance.
It consists of six web tools dedicated to the most restrictive requirements: GHS/CLP, SVHC, SDS, etc. The keystone of this software suite is MAT Factory, a database of more than 100,000 chemicals. Each substance is listed in conjunction with its chemical properties, uses, and related international regulations: REACH, TSCA, DSL and NDSL, Prop 65, etc.
REACH regulation has revolutionized industrial pro-cesses impacting manufacturers, importers and downstream users of chemicals within the European Union, as well as exporters to Europe. EcoMundo offers a wide range of compliance services, adapted to every industry:
REACH registration, via Only Representative (OR) SVHC traceability (Substances of Very High Concern) REACH authorization dossier ROHS compliance GHS/CLP compliance Creation & management of SDS (and extended SDS) Biocidal products compliance
Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical regulations
3. Integrated Ecodesign at All Levels of the Supply Chain
EcoMundo offers expertise in industrial ecodesign and is currently a partner in two major projects:
The CREER Cluster for research in ecodesign and recycling, composed of various work-groups on Life Cycle Analysis (LCA), the impact of REACH on the substitution of materials, and waste recycling. www.clustercreer.com
The European research project CORINE with global leader EUROCOPTER (EADS Group), for the design of collaborative software to lower the environmental impact of the helicopter supply chain. www.corinecodesign.eu
