AIIC

The AIIC serves as a searchable database containing approximately 40,000 chemicals that are manufactured or imported for industrial use in Australia. Industrial chemicals covered by assessment certificates are listed on the AIIC after a period of 5 years, but there are also provisions for early listing. Any registered person can introduce an industrial chemical listed on the Inventory but must comply with the terms of the Inventory listing, along with record-keeping and reporting requirements.

Chemicals not listed in the AIIC are considered new chemicals and require introduction categorization before commencing relevant activities. As per the Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme (AICIS) there are five introduction categories for industrial chemicals (including cosmetics), each with different obligations.
