Intertek Expands Chemical Regulatory Services in Australasia and Southeast Asia
30 Jun 2016
Sydney, NSW – Intertek, a leading Total Quality Assurance provider to industries worldwide, announced the further expansion of chemical regulatory services in Australasia and Southeast Asia with the expansion of its Health, Environmental and Regulatory Services (HERS) department in Sydney, Australia.
International chemical companies and their suppliers recognise the importance of accessing the global marketplace. The regulatory expertise delivered through the Australian office will complement Intertek’s existing chemical and agriculture commodity inspection and testing services in Asia, and offer customers local regulatory and assurance services for Australia and neighbouring markets as an integral part of a global chemical notification strategy.
The accelerated urbanisation and increasing demand for safer products, has signalled an increase in more robust chemical management from the chemical industry. “Customers are observing growth opportunities in the region, and Intertek’s scientific and regulatory expertise can support international companies in the development and implementation of chemical notification/registration strategy and HazCom-related regulatory services” states Mr. Richard Bi, Senior Regulatory Manager. “Intertek will support local customers in expanding into global markets whilst sharing expert advice across a wide variety of chemical control legislations and regulatory initiatives critical to sustaining our global customers’ interests in Australasia & South East Asia.”
