The GIZ "Practical Chemicals Management (CM) Toolkit" constitutes a hands-on tool for the implementation of practices and a system for the resource-efficient management of chemicals and wastes along the lines of the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM). Though it is primarily meant for small- and medium sized enterprises, experience from its implementation shows that large enterprises benefit from it as well.

The GIZ CM-Toolkit for companies provides you with invaluable materials related to adressing chemicals management, cleaner production and resource efficiency issues in an integrated way, based on over 10 years of experince of applying our concepts. You can refer to the four subject specific modules structured around the Plan-Do-Check-Art cycle for guiding you through the steps of setting up a chemicals management system from scratch or for helping you with enhancing specific elements of such a system.
