Declaration on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and

Restriction of Chemicals ("REACH")

Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 concerning the registration, evaluation, authorization and

restriction of chemicals ("REACH" for short) came into effect on 1 June 2007.

REACH contains the following provisions:

1. Manufacturers and importers of substances or preparations, who manufacture in or import into

the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA), must register these substances with

the European Chemicals Agency from 1 June 2008, provided the quantities manufactured or

imported amount to at least 1 t/a and the substances concerned are not among those that are

exempt from mandatory registration. Phase-in substances are substances listed in the European

Inventory of Existing Commercial Chemical Substances (EINECS). These could be pre-registered

between 1 June 2008 and 1 December 2008. Depending on the amounts manufactured or

imported, pre-registered substances do not need to be registered until a later date.

2. Suppliers of substances and preparations must provide the purchaser with either a safety data

sheet or with safety information. In certain cases the safety data sheet will be extended to include

details of relevant exposure scenarios ("extended safety data sheet").

3. Manufacturers and importers of goods containing a substance included on the "candidate list",

in quantities of more than 0.1 mass % per product, will be required to provide professional

purchasers - and consumers on request - with sufficient information to apply the product safely,

providing the name of the substance as a very minimum. Also, if the substance is present in

quantities of more than 1 t/a in all of these products, this must be notified to the European

Chemicals Agency (ECHA), but only from 1 June 2011 at the earliest.

4. Users of chemicals (substances and preparations), known as "downstream users", will need to

meet additional obligations from 1 June 2008, but only once they have received the extended

safety data sheet. Downstream users can provide appropriate information for the registration to

support manufacturers of substances and importers of substances and preparations.
