Chemistry and Compliance
– a central part of product safety
At Mediator, chemistry and compliance are a crucial part of our product safety work. All products, whether they are paints, toys, electronics or food packaging, contain chemical substances. These substances must be assessed and documented to ensure that the products can be safely sent to the market and comply with applicable legislation.
Chemistry and compliance is therefore about ensuring that your company complies with the rules for chemical substances and that you can document the product safety of your products. This provides both reassurance for consumers and assurance that your company can act responsibly and legally.

Chemistry and Compliance across industries
The requirements for chemistry and compliance apply across industries, but are particularly stringent within:
- Toys where children's safety requires special focus on chemical ingredients.
- Food contact materials, where documentation must ensure that no harmful substances are released into food and drink.
- Electrical products where there are requirements for both electrical safety and chemical components.
In addition, packaging and surface treatments play a central role in assessing product safety. Mediator helps you ensure that your products meet the requirements – regardless of industry.

Chemistry and Compliance and the REACH Regulation
One of the most important regulatory frameworks for chemistry and compliance is REACH Regulation (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals). This EU regulation regulates how chemical substances are registered, evaluated and possibly restricted or banned.
For companies, REACH means, among other things:
- That you need to know the chemical substances your products contain.
- That you must document how the substances are used safely.
- That you must respond to changes in lists of substances of very high concern (SVHC).
At Mediator, we help you put the REACH requirements into practice so that your company can comply with the regulations without unnecessary costs or delays.
Chemistry and Compliance in practice
Chemistry and compliance is not just about theory, but about being able to document and implement the requirements in practice. At Mediator, we advise companies throughout the entire process:
- Identification of chemical substances in products.
- Risk assessment in relation to health and the environment.
- Preparation of technical documentation and declarations.
- Assessment of test results and chemical analyses.
- Compliance with CE marking requirements and other EU directives.
Many companies experience challenges in understanding which parameters to test and how to interpret the results. Our experience means we can help you find the right solutions and ensure correct documentation.
Chemistry and Compliance through education and responsible purchasing
An important part of chemistry and compliance is creating a culture of responsible purchasing and knowledge among employees. At Mediator, we offer to train staff so that they can make the right choices throughout the purchasing process.
For example, we have held courses for purchasers, where we focused on setting the right requirements for suppliers already in the purchasing phase. This created a much easier process when the products had to be documented, tested and sent to the market.
When employees are equipped to understand chemistry and compliance, both the company's internal workflows and external credibility are strengthened.
