Chemical control in the Philippines is covered by the 1990 Toxic Substances and Hazardous Wastes Control Act (TSHWCA). The rules and regulations of this Act cover import, manufacture, processing, handling, storage, transport, sale, distribution, use and disposal of chemical substances and mixtures that present an unreasonable risk to human health or the environment.
