Poison Centre Notification
Poison Centre Notification (PCN) Services for UK & EU Markets
A poison centre notification (PCN) is required for any hazardous mixture that poses a risk to human health. Ensuring timely and accurate notification is not just a regulatory obligation but a critical component of public health protection and ongoing compliance across the UK and EU markets. Connect 4 Compliance offers the UK and EU comprehensive Poison Centre Notification services.
What is Poison Centre Notification?
Poison Centre Notification (PCN) involves submitting detailed information about hazardous mixtures to the relevant authorities, such as the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) in the EU or the UK National Poisons Information Service (NPIS). This data is used by medical professionals in emergencies to offer accurate and timely treatment in case of exposure.
We support manufacturers, importers, and distributors in meeting their legal responsibilities under Annexe VIII of the CLP Regulation and the REACH framework. While PCN submissions are made directly to each relevant national competent authority, we handle the end-to-end process, from determining notification requirements to preparing complete dossiers. We also issue and maintain Unique Formula Identifiers (UFI), which are mandatory for hazardous mixtures that affect human health and are a key requirement for PCN dossier preparation and labelling compliance.
Our Notification Services Include:
- Identifying if a PCN is required for your product or mixture
- Preparing and submitting notifications via the EU ECHA portal (for EU markets) and the UK HSE system (for Northern Ireland)
- Generating and maintaining a UFI (Unique Formula Identifier)
- Ensuring correct UFI labelling on product packaging
- Integrating PCN into your broader compliance workflow, including SDS, labelling, and packaging requirements
