ALERT NOTICE! EU Legislation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH)
The EU's new regulation on chmicals and their safe use called REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Restriction of Chemicals) entered into force on 1 June 2007. REACH has implications for all chemical substances, manufactured in or exported to the EU, including those contained in articles/products. In principle REACH applies to all chemicals: not only chemicals used in industrial processes but also in our day-to-day life, for example in cleaning products, paints as well as in articles such as clothes, furniture and electrical appliances.
Mandatory registration of chemical substances began on 1 June 2008. However, extended registration deadlines (ranging from 2010 to 2018) are available for chemical substances that are pre-registered between 1 June 2008 and 1 December 2008. A chemical that is not pre-registered by 1 December 2008 will lose access to the EU market after that date until it has been fully registered with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA).
To help stakeholders understand their obligations and how to fulfill them, please visit the ECHA website http://ec.europa.eu/echa .
