As I read these regulations they place various new charges on the manufacturer and/or supplier. None of these are particularly relevant when it comes to selection and use of gloves especially when these are for protection when selecting against chemical hazards. So I would not spend too much time worrying about whether someone has sent you an e-mail that will be of virtually no use to you. In fact with chemicals neither are the EN standards very helpful unless you understand how limited, and potentially capable of providing you with misleading information these are. These changed in April 1998 but I still find suppliers sending out gloves that do not conform to the  current standard!

The selection and use of gloves for chemical protection is far more complex (and often uncertain) than many realise. If you need more on this PM me with an e-mail address and I will send you a more detailed explanation. Chris

And you are surprised a commercial organisation is merrily oblivious to supply chain regulation?

TBH I am surprised you have only identified one that is ignorant of the current rules - REACH / CLP have been around for 13 years and 4 years ago CHiP was withdrawn from UK law but I am still getting products proposed supported by CHiP labelling & SDS which when challenged often get the "we weren't aware things had changed"
