An introduction means the importation or manufacture of an industrial chemical in Australia. An importer or manufacturer of industrial chemicals is an ‘introducer’.
The CEA pathway encourages innovation by providing a faster, cost-effective way to import or manufacture (introduce) your chemical to evaluate its commercial potential
Businesses can apply for an AICIS approved chemical name (AACN) to protect the chemical name as confidential business information. They can also apply to use a generalised end use instead of a specific end use.
