REACH

Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals

GENERAL INFORMATION

3

Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) is a

European Union Regulation of 18 December 2006. It came into force on 1st June 2007

and replaces a number of European Directives and Regulations with a single system.

For technical, scientific and administrative management of the Regulation, the

European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), built in Helsinki, was established.

REACH(Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals)

http://www.echa.europa.eu/


REACH is a new European Union regulation concerning the Registration, Evaluation,

Authorisation and restriction of CHemicals.

REACH has several aims:

• Protection of human health and the environment from the use of chemicals

• To make the people who place chemicals on the market (manufacturers and importers responsible for understanding and managing the risks associated with their use.)

• To allow the free movement of substances on the EU market.

• To enhance innovation in and the competitiveness of the EU chemicals industry.

• To promote the use of alternative methods for the assessment of the hazardous properties of substances e.g. quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) and read across.

4

A major part of REACH is the requirement for manufacturers or importers of

substances to register them with a central European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). A

registration package will be supported by a standard set of data on that substance.

The amount of data required is proportionate to the amount of substance

manufactured or supplied.

If you do not register your substances, then the data on them will not be available

and as a result, you will no longer be able to manufacture or supply them legally,

i.e. no data, no market!

5


NO DATA NO MARKET!

REACH applies to substances manufactured or imported into the EU in quantities

of 1 tonne per year or more.

Generally, it applies to all individual chemical substances on their own, in

preparations or in articles (if the substance is intended to be released during

normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of use from an article). 6

REGISTRATION

Registration is a requirement on industry (manufacturers/importers) to collect and collate specified sets of information on the properties of those substances they manufacture or supply at or above 1 tonne per year. This information is used to perform an assessment of the hazards and risks that a substance may pose and how those risks can be controlled. This information and its assessment is submitted to the European Chemicals Agency in Helsinki.

Registration for Non-EU Companies

As a non-EU company , you can not use REACH-IT directly and register by

yourself. You either should:

Register through an EU importer

By your only representative (OR)

Register through an EU subsidiary

ARTICLE AND REACH

13

ARTICLE AND REACH

14

Article means an object which during production is given a specific shape, surface or design which determines its function to a greater degree than does its chemical composition. (REACH Regulation Article 3.3)

Plastic products

Electronic products

Home appliances

Automobile

Textile products

Packaging products etc.

• Article • Substance/mixture in a container

15

“Article” / “Chemical”

OBLIGATIONS OF ARTICLE PRODUCERS/IMPORTERS

1. Registration of substances that are intended to be

released (Article 7(1))

2. SVHC notification (Article 7(2))

3. Communicate information (Article 33)

4. Authorization List (ANNEX-XIV)

5. Restriction List (ANNEX-XVII)

16

INTENDED RELEASE

Article 7(1):

Substance is needed to be registered to ECHA if both of these conditions

are met:

• The substances are intended to be released from the produced or imported article(s) during normal and reasonable foreseeable conditions of use

• The total amount of the substance present in the articles with intended releases produced and/or imported by that actor exceeds 1 tonne per year per producer or importer.

Article 7(6)

• Registration is not required for substances that have already been registered for that use.

17

Intended release: Intended releases are deliberately planned and have a specific function for the article, which is frequently not the main but an accessory function of the object. Exp: scented eraser.

SUBSTANCES OF VERY HIGH CONCERN(SVHC)

The criteria are given in article 57 of the REACH Regulation. A substance

may be proposed as an SVHC if it meets one or more of the following

criteria:

it is carcinogenic;

it is mutagenic;

it is toxic for reproduction;

it is persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic according to the criteria set out in Annex XIII to the REACH Regulation(PBT substances);

it is very persistent and very bioaccumulative according to the criteria set out in Annex XIII to the REACH Regulation (vPvB substances);

there is "scientific evidence of probable serious effects to human health or the environment which give rise to an equivalent level of concern"; such substances are identified on a case-by-case basis.

NOTIFICATION

Article 7(2) :

Any producer or importer of articles shall notify the Agency, if both the

following conditions are met:

• the substance is present in those articles in quantities totalling over one tonne per producer or importer per year;

• the substance is present in those articles above a concentration of 0,1 % weight by weight (w/w).

Article7(6) :

Notification is not required for substances that have already been registered for

that use.

21

WHEN?

22

Companies will have to notify ECHA of the presence of such a substance in their articles not later than 6 months after the inclusion of such a substance in the Candidate List. For those substances included in the Candidate List by 1 December 2010, the relevant notifications have to be submitted not later than 1 June 2011.

DUTY TO COMMUNICATE INFORMATION ON

SUBSTANCES IN ARTICLES

Article 33

Any supplier of an article containing a SVHC in a concentration above 0,1

% weight by weight (w/w) shall provide the recipient of the article with

sufficient information, available to the supplier, to allow safe use of the

article including, as a minimum, the name of that substance.

23
