Do you formulate mixtures and sell them on the European market?
Then you cannot avoid the European Product Notification.
Hazardous mixtures have already been notified within Europe before, but the European harmonization of this notification makes a big difference.

The new notification has been legally binding since January 2021.
We would like to provide you with the best possible support for this – with our PCN whitepaper, our video tutorials and the appropriate webinars, you are always fully informed and up to date!
