Soemadipradja & Taher (S&T) recently participated in the Household Insecticides Regulation Seminar at the Avenzel Hotel and Convention, Cibubur, Bogor, West Java. Organised by Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd. and Sumitomo Chemical Asia Pte Ltd, this seminar aimed to improve the safety standards of household insecticides for Indonesian consumers.

S&T supported this seminar by ensuring that the event was clear of potential conflict and by providing assistance in interpreting comprehensive materials presented by leading experts. As a trusted extension of Sumitomo's legal team, S&T played a critical role in facilitating regulatory and technical discussions to ensure they were both well-understood and aligned with Indonesian laws and international standards.

The seminar featured a series of expert presentations, including topics such as the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization)/WHO (World Health Organization) framework for active substance analysis, risk assessment procedures under USEPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency) guidance, and GHS classification requirements which provide criteria for the classification of health, physical and environmental hazards, in relation to formulation changes.

S&T's involvement in this seminar highlights its dedication to supporting clients in understanding and implementing regulatory compliance in the business world.
