Seven info days were held in Kaunas, Klaipeda, Vilnius, Riga, Jelgava, and Tallinn informing the participants not only about  the project Life Fit for REACH, but also about REACH and CLP requirements and implementation presented by the representatives from the responsible authorities. Safety data sheets, registration, authorization and the newest developments of the REACH regulation were also hot topics for the companies.
