In July 2017, EU REACH officially announced 174 substances of high concern

2017-09-28

In July 2017, the EU's REACH officially announced 174 Substances of Very High Concern (SHC). The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) added one SHC to the list on July 7, 2017, bringing the total number of SHCs to 174. "Perfluorohexane-1-sulphonic acid and its salts" (PFHxS) is a per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) flame retardant used in plasticizers, surfactants, and fire-retardant foams. It was included on the SHC list due to its "very persistent and very bioaccumulative (vPvB)" properties. Meanwhile, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has also adjusted the reasons for including certain substances in the SVHC list, incorporating the classification criteria for endocrine disruptors. This includes five substances: di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), butyl phthalate (BBP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP), and bisphenol A. Businesses should pay particular attention to the EU REACH regulations regarding finished product notification and supply chain communication. The notification requirements apply under the following conditions: 1. The substance is likely to be included in the list of authorized Substances of Very High Concern (SHC) (Article 57); and 2. The total annual amount of SHC in the finished product of an individual manufacturer or importer exceeds 1 tonne; and 3. The concentration of SHC in the finished product exceeds 0.1% (w/w); and 4. Normal or reasonable intended use of the finished product, including disposal, cannot rule out human and environmental exposure to SHC. Supply Chain Communication: – If the finished product contains a substance of very high concern (SHC) at a concentration of 0.1% (w/w), the manufacturer and importer must communicate supply chain information to provide customers and suppliers with sufficient information on the safe use of SHC in the finished product; – When consumers request safety information, the finished product supplier should provide it free of charge within 45 days. The SHC candidate list consists of substances identified by EU REACH as potentially causing serious harm to human health or the environment, and EU REACH will further designate them as authorized substances. Once a substance becomes an authorized substance, the company must obtain authorization to use it after a specific period. The Industrial Development Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs reminds businesses that the total number of SHCs has reached 174, and businesses should take corresponding measures, assess product composition, and initiate safety alternative assessments and supply chain communication mechanisms.
