Does Spanish customs or REACH paperwork apply?
No customs: Spain and Ireland are both in the EU single market, so goods move without import declarations or duty. Our products are supplied for research and industrial use under REACH; the SDS for each product is on its page and the lot certificate of analysis travels with the goods.
