<p>Flame retardant chemicals are regulated under Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 on the
Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH). To comply
with REACH, companies must identify and manage the risks linked to the substances
they manufacture and market in the EU. They have to demonstrate how the substances
can be safely used, and they must communicate the risk management measures to the
users. If the risks cannot be managed, authorities can ban or restrict the use of
substances.</p><p> </p><p>It is the responsibility of manufacturers to ensure that
any flame retardants they use are effective in meeting legal requirements for safety.</p><p>
