Chemical Safety Assessment

KKDİK (Turkish REACH) Chemical Safety Assessment (CSA)

Under KKDİK (Turkish REACH), a Chemical Safety Assessment (CSA) is a mandatory requirement for all substances:

  • Manufactured or imported in quantities ≥ 10 tonnes per year.
  • By downstream users if their intended uses are not addressed by their supplier.

The purpose of a CSA is to:

  • Ensure that risks associated with the substance are effectively controlled.
  • Address the manufacture of the substance and its intended uses.

A Chemical Safety Report (CSR), documenting the CSA, must be submitted as part of the registration dossier.

What Does the KKDİK CSA Include?

Our CSA services cover all essential components required under KKDİK:

1. Hazard Assessment

  • Identification of the substance's hazardous properties.
  • Evaluation for PBT (Persistent, Bioaccumulative, and Toxic) and vPvB (Very Persistent and Very Bioaccumulative) properties.

2. Exposure Assessment

  • Development of detailed exposure scenarios based on the intended uses of the substance.
  • Includes:
    • Occupational exposure scenarios.
    • Consumer exposure.
    • Environmental release scenarios.

3. Risk Characterization

  • Characterization of risks to:
    • Human health.
    • The environment.
  • Ensures that risks are adequately controlled under defined conditions.

How Are the Results of a CSA Used?

The outcomes of a KKDİK Chemical Safety Assessment serve multiple purposes:

  • Safety Data Sheets (SDSs): The results are used to compile compliant SDSs, ensuring vital hazard and exposure information is passed down the supply chain.
  • Registration Dossier: The CSA is summarized in the Chemical Safety Report (CSR), which includes:
    • Human health and environmental hazard properties.
    • Exposure and risk assessments, where applicable.

Exclusions from KKDİK CSA

The KKDİK Chemical Safety Assessment does not include risks associated with:

  • End uses in food contact materials.
  • Cosmetic products.

These end uses are regulated under separate legislation.
