Chemicals added to the AIIC Inventory 5 years after issue of assessment certificate

The Australian Department of Health is in charge of the database known as the Australian Inventory of Industrial Chemicals (AIIC). It is an important part of the National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (NICNAS), a system that controls the production and imports of industrial chemicals in Australia.

The AIIC acts as a thorough database of all chemicals that are marketed for use in Australia. It contains substances that have undergone NICNAS evaluation in addition to those that are exempt from notification obligations. The inventory offers details on the classification, identification, and Australian regulatory status of chemicals.
