Introduction

❖ REGULATION (EC) No 1907/2006 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 18 December 2006

❖ 2 Major Responsibility Sectors➢ Articles vs. Substances and Mixtures

❖ Scope

❖ The General Perception of REACH

Article Interpretation Changing?❖ Obligations to report SVHCs in articles applies to components incorporated into

articles, not the whole article.

❖ Not legally Binding, tends to influence

❖ Communication – suppliers of entire articles must provide information on SVHCs if

they are present in any of its components and relevant information is “available.”

❖ Notification - producer vs importer responsibilities, notification is rarely in play

❖ Where did this come from?

❖ What now?

➢ We wait on the the Court of Justice ruling

SUMMARY❖ Waiting on the article interpretation - SVHC Communication could change significantly

❖ Many lists to track but only a select few have actual legal implications

❖ The volume of substances going into the SVHC Process (Authorisation Process) is substantial

To be reactive will be too late. Assent Compliance can help you:❏ Assess your areas of risk❏ Assess the impact to your products❏ Educate your suppliers❏ Test where required ❏ Prepare for the update to the relevant documentation

You must be tracking all of these changes and the impact to your products to stay in compliance, meet the needs of your customers and stay...
