Our regulatory and technical teams across the globe work together to develop comprehensive and effective strategies to obtain regulatory approvals and address complex technical challenges that can disrupt even the most sophisticated and established stewardship and sustainability programmes. Our multidisciplinary teams (including regulatory experts, scientists, engineers and statisticians) comprehensively characterise and effectively communicate the potential risks from chemicals and product uses and identify options for safe, state-of-the-science stewardship.
We evaluate products and their ingredients or components across the entire lifecycle, providing insights on safety, sustainability, supply chain risk, and compliance with regulatory requirements around the world.
Our services include:
- Global registration and authorisation of industrial chemicals, biocides/antimicrobials, cosmetic ingredients including hazard and exposure assessment (ie chemical safety and risk assessment)
- Developing data generation strategies to address registration & authorization requirements in multiple jurisdictions
- Product notification and product authorisation and regulatory compliance under international, federal and state programs around the globe
- Regulatory strategy development, mapping and explaining of legal obligations, legal registers, identification and assessment of emerging topics/trends
- Strategic stewardship programmes to optimise product sustainability, business continuity and competitive advantage
- Product Safety & Stewardship training, learning and e-courses
- Assessment of alternatives to help clients evaluate options, determine when and how they can optimally update ingredients and formulations and avoid unfortunate substitutions
- Safety assessments at local, regional and global scale, including evaluations for emissions and releases from products in use or in manufacturing
- Supporting recalls, responses and communication after supply chain events or unanticipated product ingredient concerns
- Product safety audits in the course of due diligence assessments, compliance assessments and management system reviews
- Design, implementation and performance of environmental monitoring programs for chemicals (eg pesticides, substances of concern)
- Epidemiological studies
- Consortia management
- Only Representation services
- Stakeholder perception mapping
Circular economy - Non-toxic material flows
For companies wishing to make use of recycled material, its unknown content of potentially hazardous or banned substances can cause problems. As more and more substances and groups of substances are identified as hazardous to the environment or human health and regulated in legislation, the requirements for users of recycled materials are growing.
Ramboll helps companies to manage and overcome these difficulties by:
- Investigating legal requirements for recycled materials
- Assessment and assistance in fulfilling by-product and end-of-waste criteria
- Investigation and risk assessment of the presence of hazardous substances in both virgin and recycled materials
- Assessment of alternatives
- Designing chemical contamination control systems for legal compliance and supplier specifications
