On April 9, 2021, National Technical Committee on the Management of Hazardous Chemicals of Standardization Administration (SAC/TC251) organized an expert meeting on the draft standard in Hangzhou. As hazardous chemicals standard committee member unit, AICM representatives attended the meeting. The meeting mainly discussed the revised draft of the national standard "Classification and Product Name Number of Dangerous Goods" (GB6944-2012) and "List of Product Name of Dangerous Goods" (GB12268-2012), and organized all expert representatives to discuss.
At the beginning of the meeting, the revision team introduced the history, application of the two standards and the latest revision drafts. Then, all the participants were held heated discussions. AICM experts shared the problem of consistency between domestic and foreign practices in the management of dangerous goods, and advised to directly quote the Standard Number of the existing dangerous goods standards, and there is no need to repeat the content of other standards.
AICM will continue to focus on important regulatory and standards processes, strengthen communication with all stakeholders, and provide industry recommendations and opinions on behalf of member companies.
