Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, known as REACH, is the EU's extensive legislation for the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals. ARTEM simplifies this complex landscape with a data-first approach to ensure your products and supply chain are compliant.
Understanding REACH
REACH places the responsibility on industry to manage the risks that chemicals may pose to human health and the environment. Here's what you need to know.
1
What is the core principle of REACH?
The core principle is "no data, no market." Any company manufacturing or importing chemical substances into the EU in quantities of one ton or more per year must register them with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). This involves submitting a detailed dossier on the substance's properties and risks.
2
Who does REACH affect?
REACH impacts virtually every company in the supply chain: manufacturers, importers, and downstream users who use these chemicals in products like electronics, automotive parts, and textiles.
3
What are Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs)?
SVHCs are substances with hazardous properties, such as being carcinogenic or toxic. If a product contains an SVHC above a 0.1% concentration, companies have specific communication and notification obligations to customers and ECHA.
