Pay attention to FSC controlled wood risk assessment and avoid economic losses in timber trade

Any company that has obtained FSC-mixed certification and uses controlled wood will feel that since the FSC organization implemented the FSC-STD-40-005 V2 standard (Company Assessment FSC Controlled Wood Standard) on January 1, 2007, there have been many changes to the FSC-controlled wood standards. The control requirements for wood are becoming increasingly detailed and stringent. In the process of implementing controlled wood management, many companies feel that the new standard adds a lot more content than the requirements of FSC-STD-40-005 V1. Some companies even believe that the management of controlled wood cannot be completed 100% by some domestic wood processors. Especially when it comes to risk assessment of controlled wood. But we have to pay attention: if a company purchases controlled wood but ignores certain requirements during the risk assessment process, this may result in the purchased materials not being used in the production of FSC-mixed products, or the products produced not being able to Sold as FSC certified product. The resulting economic losses can be huge. So we should spend a little more time conducting a risk assessment of controlled wood. FSC controlled wood should avoid the following five wood sources: FSC-STD-40-005 V2 gives 2 ways to purchase controlled wood. The first one: Purchase raw materials from suppliers who have obtained FSC controlled wood sales qualifications. Second: The company implements its own FSC controlled wood assessment process and purchases raw materials from non-certified suppliers. The first procurement method is the simplest, but currently there are only two companies in China that have obtained FSC certification.

REACH’s impact on traders and their responses

The "European Union Regulations on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals" (REACH) is called "the most complex foreign technical barrier with the widest impact that China has ever encountered". The scope and extent of its impact can be imagined Know. The impact of REACH on different manufacturing industries can be easily found in various media and professional journals, which is very helpful for manufacturing companies. So, does REACH only affect product manufacturers? Does REACH have any direct requirements for dealers who export to the EU? Will it have an impact? What are the impacts? What needs to be done to ensure normal trade? These will be the main focus of this article, and they are also issues that European dealers must pay attention to. 1. Distributors and export trade categories The REACH regulations clearly define "distributors", which refer to natural or legal persons in the EU who only store substances or place substances on the market for third parties, including retailers. Distributors within the scope of this definition obviously refer to companies established in the EU that are engaged in product storage or sales. Domestic distributors do not fall into the category of EU distributors. The dealers considered in this article are enterprises that only engage in import and export trade and do not produce themselves, especially those that export to the EU. If a dealer is producing at the same time, he is actually a "non-EU manufacturer" within the scope of REACH, and the terms of "non-EU manufacturer" apply, which is beyond the scope of this article. Judging from the registered address and scope of operations, distribution

IECQ Frequently Asked Questions and Answers

1． Some companies believe that as long as a test report shows the content of heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury, and hexafluoride, it can be used to determine the RoHS compliance of materials. For example, some companies use test reports collected on the European EN71-3 toy safety standard to determine RoHS compliance. Is it acceptable? Answer: Unacceptable. The regulations of EN71-3-9 are the "dissolution amount" under a certain environment, while RoHS is the "content" of the material. The sample preparation methods for the two tests are different, and the measured results may be very different. The test data cannot be replaced by each other. . 2. The purchased parts contain a variety of colors, but the test report only shows the harmful substance content of one of the colors. Can such a report be used to determine the RoHS compliance of materials? Answer: No. 3. When there is only one test result for a single homogeneous material in a component, can it be used to determine the RoHS compliance of the entire component? Answer: No. Only one product can be proven to be compliant. 4． As there may be contaminated processes in the production process, switching cleaning methods are usually adopted to prevent cross-contamination, but its effect is difficult to prove. What are some reference suggestions (or experiences)? Answer: The cleaning and confirmation methods will be determined based on the risk of contamination. Evidence of cleaning capabilities can be considered from several aspects: 5. For factories that have completed the switch to RoHS, all products need to meet RoHS requirements. Is labeling a key control item at this time? Answer: 6. How to confirm the materials provided by suppliers?
