    BCF: Welcomed Prime Minister's 'Road to Brexit' Speech

    Announcement to seek associate membership of the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) as part of Brexit negotiations

    BCF: Welcomed Prime Minister

    The BCF said it welcomed the Prime Minister’s March 2 Mansion House speech, “Road to Brexit," where she outlined plans to seek associate membership of the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), one of three EU agencies explicitly mentioned alongside medicines and aviation, showing the importance of the chemicals sector to the U.K. economy.

    “I was delighted to hear the Prime Minister’s plans to seek associate membership of ECHA," said Tom Bowtell, chief executive of the British Coatings Federation. "Each of the many thousands of chemicals used by formulating industries such as coatings must be registered with ECHA for our members to be able to use it in a product that they want to re-export back to Europe as a finished coating or printing ink. Creating a separate U.K. registration process would be costly and burdensome, both to chemicals producers and downstream industries such as our own. The U.K. is a net exporter of coatings and inks, with the EU being the biggest market.  Like with other sectors, proximity to markets matters with exporting products like paints, coatings and printing inks. Ninety-eight percent of BCF members have some form of trade with the EU, and 93 percent have said that staying within REACH (the key chemicals regulation that is controlled by ECHA) is critical to trade. Having close co-operation with ECHA will ensure that the U.K. coatings industry will remain a global competitive force, and help reassure international companies, both from the EU, and further afield from Japan and the USA that the UK is still a good place to manufacture coatings and inks for the U.K., and also for export markets in the EU.”

    Added Ellen Daniels, head of Public Affairs and Policy at the British Coatings Federation: “This is a landmark speech for the coatings industry. The confirmation of a transition period, and the ambition to have tariff free trade will provide business with certainty and security going forward, along with the Prime Minister’s pledge to seek access to ECHA. The EU has described the speech as 'constructive' and the next year will be key for the industry and the country as we move into the next round of negotiations.”
