Hibiscus is proud to announce our participation in CHEMUK 2025, and this year, we are not only exhibiting but also actively contributing to the knowledge-sharing and discussion panels shaping the future of the UK chemical industry.
Keynote Presentation: CLP Label Changes
One of the highlights of our involvement is a keynote presentation by our Managing Director, James Killerby, on the upcoming CLP label change requirements. With regulatory compliance being a critical aspect of the chemical sector, this session will provide essential insights into the new labelling rules, what they mean for businesses, and how companies can prepare for the transition efficiently.
James will break down the key amendments to the Classification, Labelling, and Packaging (CLP) regulations, focusing on minimum font sizes, label formatting changes, and line spacing requirements. He will also offer practical guidance on adapting to these changes, ensuring a smooth transition for businesses as the deadlines for compliance draw near.
This session will be held on Day 1 (Wednesday, 21st May) 16:15 – 16:30, Stage 1, and is essential for anyone involved in chemical labelling, helping you stay ahead of the curve on the latest regulatory updates.
Panel Discussion: Responsible Care & Sustainability in Chemical Packaging
In addition to James’ keynote presentation, we are also hosting a mini panel discussion titled *Sustainability in Chemical Packaging’. This will be held on Day 2 (Thursday, 22nd May) from 14:00 – 14:30 at Stage 2, the main Sustainability Themes stage.
This session will bring together industry leaders to explore the latest topics in responsible care, sustainable labelling, and environmentally conscious packaging solutions.
