title: CLP Regulation and REACH Regulation: links, implementation and control in Italy.
abstract: In the last years the European policy for the management of chemicals is deeply changed after entering into force of the European Regulations (EC) no. 1907/2006 and (EC) no. 1272/2008. The implementation of the two Regulations requests a strong effort both from the enterprises and from national and regional institutions. The activities already realised or that are planned for the implementation of one of them could support the implementation of the other one. The crucial point is the creation of the surveillance coordination through a network that involves also the professional figures currently present in the border areas in order to check the compliance with the European legislation of substances on their own, in mixtures or in articles before they are put on European market.
