Over the last few years, industries in China have been experiencing rounds of rigorous environmental protection inspections. This increasing pressure has amounted to some enterprises and chemical plants having to cut or even shut down production due to non-compliance or violations of environmental issues, including manufacturers and suppliers of a number of companies based in North America and Europe. The relevance and widespread effect of this issue on supply chains has been widely discussed (with regular updates published on ChemLinked) as a constantly evolving issue that can make or break supplier normal production and operations.

The Product Stewardship Society was launched in 2012, providing resources, professional development opportunities for professionals across industries to ensure projects are developed and implemented in a responsible way throughout their entire cycle. The relevance of China and its supply chains is such that REACH24H will be both sponsoring and presenting at the global forum – Product Stewardship 2019 Conference, to be held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center (GCCC) in Columbus, OH from Sep 10-12.

On Wednesday, September 11, REACH24H USA Inc. General Manager Robert Kiefer (acting as Moderator) will be joined by Dr. Renee Liang from REACH24H Consulting Group China, Dr. John Piper, Ph.D. from Emerald Performance Materials and Jim Jones from the Household & Commercial Products Association (HCPA). This session will examine the major EHS regulatory requirements in China, recommended practices of EHS compliance audit for enterprises to maintain compliance, assess challenges presented by supply chain disruptions, and discuss how downstream users in North America could effectively deal with and avoid supply chain disruptions occurring in China (and elsewhere).
