What is REACH?
REACH is a new European Community Regulation on chemicals and their safe use (EC 1907/2006). It deals with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical substances. The new law entered into force on 1 June 2007.The REACH Regulation calls for the progressive substitution of the most dangerous chemicals when suitable alternatives have been identified.
A candidate list of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) and immediate obligations at 28 October 2008 has been published.
A major impact of REACH for retailers, suppliers, tanners and chemical companies is that from 28 October 2008 suppliers of articles with SVHCs present above 0.1% w/w must provide sufficient information to ensure safe use to their customers (and, upon request, to consumers within 45 days of receiving a request for the information). This information must ensure safe use of the article and, as a minimum, include the name of the substance.
BLC can assist with any REACH testing and REACH support that may be required or with the REACH screening process to ensure that you can meet the immediate requirements of the REACH Regulation. Contact info@blcleathertech.com or +44 (0)1604 679999
