UL Solutions services support the entire chemicals and materials supply chain, from market advisory and manufacturing to safety testing and sustainability.
UL Solutions supports the entire chemicals and materials value chain with chemical testing, assessment and certification services, regulatory management software and supply chain transparency, helping protect people and the planet while strengthening trust in your brand.
From raw materials and consumer goods to transportation and energy, our science and data spans the product lifecycle.
Our portfolio includes chemical management software, regulatory intelligence software, training within specific scopes of work, and services that advance transparency and traceability across upstream producers and downstream users, addressing concerns about counterfeit materials and evolving compliance needs.
In the polymers industry, we apply scientific expertise across material selection, design, production and end‑of‑life. Our Plastics Recognition Program and the UL Yellow Card™ and the Blue Card help demonstrate safety, performance and sustainability credentials that downstream manufacturers trust.
Access testing and certification for polymeric materials to global standards, covering flammability, electrical, thermal and environmental properties. Identified chemical testing methods include IR, TGA and DSC as part of the basic plastics program. Find out more at Plastics Testing & Certification.
For the specialty chemicals industry, from coatings and adhesives to cosmetics, we align innovation with the intended application to help meet regulatory requirements, demonstrate compliance, protect IP and achieve market readiness, supported by software, data and materials testing expertise.
Learn how we help manufacturers move confidently from product innovation through compliance and retailer specifications.
Meet evolving compliance requirements with chemical data management software combined with testing for substances of concern, improving portfolio transparency, hazard communication and PFAS monitoring.
Engage global regulatory experts and leverage scalable platforms (e.g., WERCS Studio, ChemADVISOR®) to streamline GHS‑aligned SDS authoring, labeling and compliance programs across the product life cycle.
Identify hazardous substances across categories, from toys to textiles and electronics, using chemical testing and toxicological risk assessments to support global market access (e.g., EU REACH, U.S. requirements).
For drinking water treatment chemicals, UL Solutions provides testing and certification to NSF/ANSI/CAN 60, mandated by most U.S. states and Canadian provinces, so suppliers can demonstrate health‑effects compliance and earn a UL Mark and Product iQ® listing.
From coagulants to corrosion control and disinfection, we evaluate chemicals and treatment media, with additional testing for PFAS where required.
Find compliant materials and confirm certifications with UL Solutions’ Prospector® (materials discovery across plastics, personal care, coatings and more) and Product iQ® (official UL certification data and guide information) to streamline selection and sourcing.

As a global safety science leader, UL Solutions operates worldwide laboratories and participates on regulatory committees, bringing deep expertise in testing, certification, verification and advisory services for chemicals, materials and finished products.
Ready to scope your project with a leader among chemical testing companies? Our teams help align requirements, methods and timelines to your market access goals.
UL Solutions supports producers and users across the full chemicals and materials supply chain, from raw materials and plastics to consumer goods, transportation and energy, helping address transparency, traceability and sustainability expectations across value chains.
Capabilities span basic and industrial chemicals, specialty and fine chemicals, and plastics/engineered materials. We also evaluate drinking water treatment chemicals and related media to applicable standards and conduct chemical analysis across numerous consumer product categories.
Through plastics testing and recognition programs (e.g., the UL Yellow Card™ and Blue Card), materials are evaluated to relevant standards (e.g., UL 94, UL 746 series), providing third‑party proof of safety and performance that downstream manufacturers rely on.
