GREAT SUCCESS FOR DYE-STAFF’S PETITION: OVER 11,000 COLLECTED SIGNATURES

Reached the target for the petition promoted by Dye-Staff that denounces the serious situation of Italian SMEs in the chemical industry and calls for immediate action by the competent authorities.

There are 11.317 signatures collected for the awareness campaign launched by Dye-Staff through the Change.org website.
The petition – addressed to the Minister of Health, Beatrice Lorenzin, and to the Minister of Economic Development, Carlo Calenda – started in July and self-powered without financial means, with the help of Word of mouth.

At this point the authorities will listen.

Our requests are:

formal acknowledgment by Italian and European institutions of the objective difficulties that REACH puts on SMEs and the work done so far in the definition of scientific results;
an economic support on the costs for analysis and testing required for registrations;
a simplified path in the REACH registration process for Enterprises that operate with this type of product.
