SIEF – Who is who?

  • Lead Registrant:  GfE Metalle und Materialien GmbH
  • SIEF Facilitator:  Vanadium Consortium on behalf of the Lead Registrant.
  • Pre-registrants can participate in the SIEF at different activity levels: very active, involved, passive, and dormant.
  • The Vanadium Consortium is preparing the registration dossier, i.e. the IUCLID file, in cooperation with the SIEF. The Lead Registrant will submit the REACh Registration Dossier. All other co-registrants will refer to it when submitting their registration.
