Welcome to the December issue of EVISA's Speciation Newsletter!
Hexavalent chromium is one of the most regulated toxic metal species. One of the regulations is for leather that can be in contact with skin (gloves, shoes, bags etc.). The German Federal Agency for Consumer Protection and Food Safety (BVL) reported recently that high hexavalent chromium found in leather products was one of the most often made complaints (see the news below).
Another regulation is for workers being exposed to hexavalent chromium. The US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) now is seeking public comments on its proposal to facilitate collection of information. The deadline for comments is 16 February (see the news below).
We thank you all for your interest and your fidelity and we hope that we can meet your expectation also during
the next year.
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous Year 2016
Your EVISA team
