Redebel S.A. creates Redebel Regulatory Affairs SCRL

 REDEBEL S.A., a benchmark company in the approval of plant protection products, biocides and chemical substances (REACH), has decided to divide its testing and regulation activities by creating a new structure, RRA (Redebel Regulatory Affairs SCRL), which will encompass the regulatory affairs division. This came into effect on 1 March 2016, and the move is a reflection of the company’s willingness to continuously strive to better meet its clients needs and its goal to strengthen its position on the market.

REDEBEL S.A. is known and recognised for the quality of its pesticide trials in Belgium (efficacy, selectivity and residue). Its regulatory affairs division, on the other hand, has developed considerably over the last few years and plays an active role in plant protection legislation, as well as in biocide and REACH legislation. The division also operates in all 28 member states of the European Union.

As Tanguy Dumont de Chassart, Managing Director of REDEBEL S.A., states: "The creation of a separate division dedicated to regulatory affairs is a very important step in the development of our Group. It will allow us to continue developing our respective activities, with specific expansion plans adapted to meet the needs of each entity. It gives me great satisfaction to see the progress our regulatory affairs division has made over the last few years and I am very confident as regards its ability to continue playing a major role within the European business of Regulatory Affairs."

"As for the new company’s name, we wanted to maintain the name "REDEBEL" as it is synonymous with very high standards of quality and this is one of the important values we want to see as a foundation of the new company. However, we also wanted to have a specific name for our current and future clients."

Sébastien Dumont de Chassart, Managing Director of R.R.A, says: "I am very enthusiastic about the idea of taking control of RRA and contributing to its development. Ever since my arrival at REDEBEL in 2012, I have been hugely impressed by the potential of the different departments and the performance prospects that this has facilitated. With legislation becoming increasingly complex and given that it is evolving at such a fast pace, it has become very difficult for companies to maintain an in-house team tasked with staying up-to-date on regulatory affairs.

That’s why our clients solicit our services, because this task is an integral part of the work undertaken by our collaborators.

Elsewhere, we have employed more than 10 people over the last three years with a view to strengthen our existing teams, and we are continuing to grow. I am convinced that we have a place on the market as client feedback is very positive. We are also hoping that the nature of our organisation will attract new collaborators willing to actively participate in the development of the division by taking part in the company’s capital."

"In short, both companies will work together as sharing information between the testing and regulatory affairs divisions is fundamental. We have been able to note that this form of collaboration often provides our clients with considerable added value as it allows us to ensure that all of the company’s activities share a single goal: i.e. the approval of the product or active substance in question.

We assure all of our clients that the commitments undertaken by REDEBEL S.A. will be carried out without the imposition of conditions or alterations by RRA, which undertakes to ensure the continuity of the same. This applies to current and future contracts, as well as any confidentiality agreements. Nevertheless, if any of our clients so wish, we can draw up new agreements in the name of the new company upon request."
