Breakout 2

Given the significant presence of chemical manufacturing and trading in this region, many

MNCs and local set-ups have to deal with various regional chemical control regulations.

Growth of the chemical clusters in this region have resulted in the development of more

complex chemical regulations which are often not harmonized between the countries. This

created trade barrier as trading involves complying to a broader range of similar but different

regulations by the companies.

Regional Emerging Regulations Development and Responsible Care Programme –

Where is the balance?


How do we align ourselves to the trend of emerging regulation with the Responsible Care’s

self-regulation principles?
