Chemical risk assessment and safety: from innovation project to regulatory framework

CEHTRA supports companies in the assessment, modeling, and management of chemical risks in order to protect the health of workers, consumers, and the environment.

Your partner in understanding and managing chemical risks:

protecting workers, consumers, and the environment.

Regardless of your position in the supply chain, protecting workers, consumers, and the environment from chemical risks is a key priority and a shared responsibility.


As an expert in chemical risk assessment, CEHTRA supports all players in the chemical industry — fragrances, flavourings, pharmaceuticals, aeronautics, automotive, construction and many others — to meet major health and environmental challenges. Thanks to the expertise of our toxicologists (ERT), ecotoxicologists and chemists, we carry out rigorous assessments based on recognised methodologies and in compliance with European regulations such as REACH and GPSR. 


This scientific and regulatory approach offers a comprehensive view of each project, combining scientific expertise, field knowledge and regulatory compliance to provide our clients with reliable and sustainable solutions that support responsible innovation.

Chemical Risk Assessment

  • Toxicological hazard assessment

  • Evaluation of exposure to substances resulting from contact, migration, or handling of chemical products or articles (e.g. consumer goods such as textiles, sporting goods, fashion accessories, toys, or olfactory decoration items).

What’s Included in a Chemical Risk Assessment?

Any contact, handling or use of a chemical product or substance may require a risk assessment to ensure the safety of operators, consumers and the environment, as part of an innovation project or regulatory obligations (REACH, GPSR, etc.). 

Toxicological assessment:

assessing the intrinsic capacity of a substance to cause harm and deriving toxicological reference values. 

Exposure modelling and estimation:

assessing the emission process of a chemical substance in contact with humans and the environment, and quantifying their exposure using calculation models.
