What it is
Kemikalieinspektionen (KemI, the Swedish Chemicals Agency) is Sweden’s authority for chemicals. It supervises REACH and CLP nationally, enforces substance restrictions, and is known for an active stance on chemicals in consumer products.
Why it matters for compliance
Because the chemical layer catches most consumer goods, KemI is a Swedish authority brands should know — it enforces REACH restrictions and SVHC-related duties at national level, and Sweden has historically pushed for stricter substance controls. If you sell products containing substances of concern in Sweden, KemI is the relevant national body alongside ECHA at EU level.
How to use it
- Use KemI guidance on chemical rules and restrictions in Sweden.
- Treat it as the Swedish authority for REACH/CLP enforcement.
- Pair it with ECHA’s Candidate List and restriction list for the operative detail.
Good to know
Discharging chemical duties depends on reliable supplier composition data — the legal duties are clear, but proving them requires knowing what is in the product.
