Enabling manufacturers and importers of iron and iron substances to comply with EU REACH legislation

Welcome to The Iron Platform. If you have to register register iron and/or iron substances under EU REACH, you have come to the right place.

Our mission is to provide a mechanism to enable the various iron industries to comply with the EU REACH legislation in accordance with the statutory timetable on a timely basis in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.

The Iron Platform is an EU REACH Consortium, established in 2008 on behalf of a number of member companies and organisations producing and importing a variety of iron substances and iron-containing preparations.

The complexities and requirements of EU REACH are such that registration is a very expensive process and places heavy demands on all registrants, however large or small they may be.
