Andrew Brooks is a market segment lead focusing on product stewardship solutions to help customers in the chemicals and formulated products industries realize their compliance goals and contribute to their overall sustainability strategy. He draws on over 10 years of industry experience and deep expertise in chemistry to support customers as they address their chemical regulatory requirements throughout a product’s life cycle. He sees his work with UL Solutions as an opportunity to contribute toward improving our impact on the environment by supporting customers’ understanding and adherence to regulations.
Chemical compliance
To help customers differentiate themselves in the marketplace, Andrew empowers them to set and meet goals beyond minimum statutory requirements. His team helps customers understand everything about their product’s chemical components — not just their regulatory status but also their hazard profile and their contribution to the overall product’s safety and environmental characteristics. As chemical regulations expand and impact manufactured goods and finished articles, his team assists customers with identifying the presence of component substances of concern and restricted substances to enable market access and create safer products designed with circularity in mind.
Product stewardship
Andrew’s team enables compliance throughout a product’s life cycle, from its conception, transportation and use to its disposal and beyond. By considering safety and environmental compliance requirements during the development stage of a product, customers can help avoid costly late-stage redesign work and confidently enter markets. Andrew provides software solutions that help customers conduct compliance activities based on UL Solutions’ data and expertise.
“Through the effective management of chemical data, you can achieve, monitor and maintain compliance, launch products confidently, support sustainability goals and inform others of essential information relating to your product portfolio.” – Andrew Brooks
