BANNOCKBURN, IL — A new guidebook that covers the European Union's registration, evaluation, authorization and restriction of chemicals (REACH) regulations has been released by IPC.

The document was developed at the direction of an IPC task force to combat "a widespread lack of awareness and understanding of REACH within the industry."

"REACH & the Electronics Industry Supply Chain: The Basics, the Impact and How to Survive," includes a timetable of activities and a review of REACH implications and obligations for each segment of the supply chain.

The deadline for REACH preregistration is Nov. 30.
