How to future-proof the horse industry

I could! Despite a globally harmonized classification system, we still see different countries having different thresholds for what is considered hazardous, Europe tends to be stricter than the US which probably isn’t surprising. Europe is really running the show in regards to testing chemicals through their REACh regulation and having those classifications harmonized.

While the US isn’t as prudent, any US company that manufactures chemicals that MAY end up in Europe’s market, have be to REACh “registered”. All the big players had to get on board and many small players too. And paid big bucks to do so too.

Don’t get me started on sustainability :joy::sob:
