ReachCentrum, an ERM company, has opened a new office and subsidiary in Seoul: ReachCentrum Asia.

Through this new office, ReachCentrum will be able to support companies and consortia meeting their obligations related to REACH-like regulations emerging in Asia in a similar way to how they are supporting clients in Europe.

“The decision to create ReachCentrum Asia is a further example of ERM and ReachCentrum’s ongoing commitment to help our clients meeting the growing demand for chemical compliance activities”, said Keryn James, CEO of ERM, parent company of ReachCentrum.

The new office, led by Willi Muenninghoff, will be included in the network of ERM’s presence in the region, and will be dedicated to emerging chemical regulations in Asia Pacific countries. Services will include:

• Consortium Management and Lead and co-registrant support
• Letters of Access (LoA) Shop
• Financial Management
• Contract Management and Data Access
• Trustee Service and Regulatory Advisory Service
• Data Brokerage Platform

Since its establishment in 2006, ReachCentrum has helped companies all through the value chain prepare and implement EU REACH and Biocide. ReachCentrum is the European market leader for consortia management services and trading of Letters of Access. During the last 4 years, following the acquisition by ERM, ReachCentrum has further diversified its activities, developing Chemical Data Brokerage activities.
