ECHA’s first SME focus group meeting was held on 15 December 2025.

Ten participants, both micro, small and medium-sized companies and SME representatives, met to discuss ECHA's past and upcoming support activities, including the new company size verification process starting in 2027.
The SME focus group is part of ECHA's SME action plan. It aims to help smaller companies comply with EU's chemicals legislation and assist ECHA in providing SME-friendly services.
