REACH SVHC Screening

REACH SVHC screening please match your product

Under the REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Restriction, and Authorization of Chemicals) regulations, Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) are hazardous substances that require control in addition to restricted substances (Appendix XVII). These include Group 1 and 2 carcinogenic, mutagenic, and reproductive toxicants (Cat. 1 and 2 CMRs); persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic substances (PBTs); highly persistent, bioaccumulative substances (vPvBs); or substances of equivalent concern (e.g., endocrine disruptors). Due to the complexity of supply chains and production processes, SVHCs can be inadvertently introduced into a wide variety of consumer products. To ensure product competitiveness in the market, European companies have begun requiring their suppliers to provide SVHC test results for their products.

Authorization

To encourage the use of safe and environmentally friendly chemicals, some SVHCs have been prioritized in the licensing process. Those SVHCs listed in Annex XIV will no longer be permitted for sale or import into Europe once a date is set, unless the company has been authorized. The European Chemicals Committee (ECHA) will publish the first list of authorized chemicals in June 2009 and will conduct a rigorous review every two years.

Notification

For products containing any SVHC exceeding 0.1% (w/w) and with an annual production or import volume exceeding 1 metric ton, manufacturers or importers must notify the European Chemicals Committee. The first list of SVHCs, including nearly a thousand SVHCs already documented in existing legal documents, will be published in late 2008 or early 2009.

Messages in the Supply Chain

Any product containing more than 0.1% (w/w) of an SVHC must provide information throughout the supply chain, including the chemical name of the substance and safe usage guidelines. REACH will further require that this information be provided within 45 days of a consumer request. This measure will be implemented swiftly after the first SVHC list is published.
