As is tradition at opesus, our new colleagues have chosen an organization for this year's Christmas Charity on behalf of our customers. In 2022, we were able to expand our team in Germany, the USA, and for the very first time in Spain. Therefore, our new colleagues (Alice, Anaid, Ella, James, Javier, Julia, Mikail, and Natalie) have chosen a Spanish foundation called Oncolliga.
"What do you do?" was probably the most heard question when we presented ourselves at the DHBW study information day on November,16th in Friedrichshafen. With a lot of nice chats with different people, we were able to spread "what opesus does" a little further into the world and to possible future opesians.

The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) is the appointed body for CLP Art. 45 in Germany. The institute receives product notifications and forwards them to the seven poison centres in Germany. The majority of product notifications are submitted centrally via the Submission Portal of the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), which in turn forwards them to the BfR.
