What We Do

Understanding, assessing, and managing chemical risks.

The Environmental Science team are experts in the environmental fate, behaviour, and ecotoxicity of chemicals. We specialise in complex substances, including UVCBs, multi-constituent, and difficult-to-test substances, to develop tailored strategies that assess hazards and inform meaningful risk evaluations. 

We combine traditional and modern scientific approaches, including New Approach Methodologies (NAMs), QSARs, read-across, and weight of evidence, to meet regulatory information requirements efficiently and ethically. From strategy development and study management to dossier preparation and support with regulatory communication, we provide end-to-end support for the environmental assessment of complex substances. Our team is fully engaged in the scientific and regulatory processes, remain current and engaged and are able to provide insightful advice to our customers. 

Our Services

Environmental Fate & Behaviour

We provide expert assessment of the environmental fate and behaviour of substances, including persistence, mobility, and bioaccumulation.

Using tailored, science-driven strategies and regulatory insight, we help manufacturers, formulators, and consortia demonstrate compliance with evolving global requirements while reducing risk, minimising animal testing, and supporting sustainable product development.

The Challenges

The challenges of complex substances.

Assessing and registering complex substances comes with unique challenges.

Many test guidelines, regulations and guidance were created for simple, well-defined materials and do not fully address the complexity of UVCBs and other multi-constituent substances. This can make it difficult to apply standard approaches with confidence. 

The Solution

We provide tailored, pragmatic, and regulator-accepted solutions for complex chemical assessment:

Success requires expertise and adaptability. Combining scientific knowledge with regulatory insight and evidence-based strategies allows organisations to navigate complexity and achieve compliance more efficiently. 

Strategy & Data Review

Strategy & Data Review

Identify data gaps, integrate existing information, and develop robust testing and non-testing strategies, for substances including UVCBs and difficult-to-test substances.

Testing & Study Management

Testing & Study Management

Design, coordinate, and monitor ecotoxicity and environmental fate studies with CROs, ensuring scientific rigour and regulatory compliance for an in-house like service providing you with peace of mind during study conduct.

Regulatory Dossiers & Risk Assessment

Regulatory Dossiers & Risk Assessment

Prepare and maintain compliant dossiers (REACH, CLP, international frameworks), conduct hazard, exposure, and risk assessments, and support PB(M)T evaluations.

 Ethical & Efficient Assessments

Ethical & Efficient Assessments

Minimise animal testing while generating high-confidence, regulator-accepted data.

The Result

We help clients reduce risk, streamline regulatory processes, and maintain competitive market access through rigorous, science-driven environmental assessments with a proven track record of regulatory acceptance.
