Rules reach every step, from suppliers to customers

One rule at each step of a typical chemicals organisation, and what it means for you.

  1. Suppliers

    Since October 2026, EU REACH has banned PFHxA in consumer mixtures, which may cover C6 fluorosurfactants you buy.

  2. Your sites

    Since April 2026, the EU carcinogens at work directive has limited benzene at your plants to 0.2 ppm.

  3. Your products

    Ethoxylated surfactants you sell can carry 1,4-dioxane, which New York caps at 1 ppm in household cleaners.

  4. Your markets

    Substances you export to Türkiye at 1,000 tonnes a year or more need KKDIK registration by the end of 2026.

  5. Your customers

    EU REACH makes you tell customers that their workers must be trained before using your diisocyanate crosslinkers.

Illustrative. The rules that reach your organisation depend on its substances, mixtures and markets.

Projects for chemical manufacturers

Each is scoped to your substances, mixtures and markets, and Foresight checks every result against its source.

Describe the work. Foresight runs it and checks it.

Every project runs the same way, whatever the regulation. Here Foresight answers a customer’s substance questionnaire from your own records, and asks your suppliers for the rest.

Illustration of one project. The request reads: Answer this customer’s substance questionnaire from our records, and ask suppliers for what’s missing. Foresight reads the customer’s 86 questions and replies: I’ll answer what I can from your formulations, ask suppliers for the rest, and check each answer against its source. It plans the work: Read the questionnaire, Match each question to your records, Ask suppliers for the rest, Draft each answer with its source. Your records answer 79 of 86 questions. Foresight asks 3 suppliers for the other 7. Foresight checks each answer against its source, such as a supplier’s declaration that no PFAS are intentionally added. The answers go into the customer’s own file, each with its source, ready for Priya Nair, Product Stewardship Manager, to send back. Foresight goes on monitoring the rules behind each answer.

  1. Say what you need in plain words, and share what you already have.

  2. Foresight sets the scope, plans the work and drafts each deliverable with the sources it rests on.

  3. Foresight checks each answer against its source.

  4. The work comes back ready to use, and Foresight keeps it current as the rules change.

Your data, kept secure

Your data is kept in your organisation’s own workspace, separate from every other customer’s. It is encrypted in transit and at rest, including nightly backups, and is not shared with model providers for training. Foresight runs regular penetration tests.

How Foresight protects your data

What chemical makers ask

Can Foresight tell us which products a change reaches?

A portfolio impact assessment checks each product against each change, using its formulation, its classification and where it sells. Each finding says what the change requires of the product and what your customers need, such as a revised safety data sheet. Foresight checks every finding against its source, and what you change stays your call.

Can Foresight prepare our REACH registrations?

Yes, for EU and UK REACH, from the data gap analysis to a dossier ready to submit. Foresight checks each dossier against its sources, and your organisation submits it. When a new classification or new data triggers an update under Article 22, Foresight checks the registrations you already hold.

Does Foresight cover the markets we export to?

Yes. Foresight watches the chemical inventories and control laws of markets from Canada and Brazil to China, Korea and Japan, and scores each change for the substances you sell there. Coverage varies by market, so scoping starts with where you sell.

Does Foresight cover our plants as well as our products?

Yes. Foresight watches exposure limits, major-accident rules such as Seveso III and the permits for what your plants emit. An exposure limit review checks the limits for the solvents and isocyanates handled at each plant.

What do you need from us?

A description of the work and the substances and mixtures it covers. Useful inputs include your product lists, formulations, safety data sheets and registration numbers, the sites you run and the markets you sell into. You also set how the work is judged, such as your own scoring scale.

Tell us the work you need done

Foresight talks through your substances, mixtures and markets with you. You’ll see the scope and the price before the project starts.
