New trends in REACH testing regulations
As the beginning of 2017 the European chemicals management agency (hereinafter referred to as the ECHA) in the list of high attention of the REACH regulation substances added bisphenol A, perfluorinated 4 - heptyl decanoic acid, phenol and 4 - tert amyl phenol four kinds of material, make the high attention of the material of the REACH regulation listing increased to 173 species, affect China's export of chemicals and spinning and weaving, clothing, toys, shoes and hats, plastic and other consumer goods industry.
European Union of the REACH regulation concerning the registration, evaluation, authorisation and restriction of chemicals regulation ", the European Union to enter the market of all chemical preventive management regulations, and has become the vane of global chemicals regulation.Laws and regulations of the material list "high concern", "authorized material list" and "consumer goods harmful substances in the restricted list" of continuously updated to say is the most direct manifestation of the eu chemicals regulation constantly strengthened.
The risks of China's export products cannot be ignored by REACH regulations.According to statistics, the eu 2016 release goods do not conform to the REACH regulation bulletin 299, among them, made in China accounts for more than seventy percent, including toys, textile and garment, leather, simulation jewelry goods.With the growth of the banned and restricted substances, the quality and security risks will continue to increase.
ECHA intends to apply to the commission for the uv absorber, 1 - methyl - 2 - pyrrolidone (NMP) into seven kinds of material such as REACH authorization list, these chemicals are widely used in soap, paint, detergent, plastic products and sealant, adhesive, PVC, etc.ECHA believes that these substances have risks of reproductive toxicity, high persistence, and bioaccumulation.Jiangsu relevant personage points out, inspection and quarantine department authorized material included in the list means that these substances are not allowed to enter the eu market, unless there is a specific purpose and adopted by the eu's long-term can obtain permission.
REACH is the European regulations "the registration, evaluation, authorisation and restriction of chemicals" for short, is to enter the eu market of all the chemicals preventive management regulations, it directly or indirectly, from mining to the influence of almost all industry such as the textile, light industry, mechanical and electrical products and manufacturing process.The updated list of SVHC lists in REACH, the list of authorized substances and the list of harmful substances in consumer goods are also reflected in the increasingly strict eu chemical regulatory regime.
To this end, the company reminds relevant enterprises to strengthen the study and tracking of REACH regulations, and timely obtain the updated information of REACH regulations;Clear its own products raw materials composition, completes the SVHC and annex X Ⅶ restricted substances screening, make sure that all the chemical composition in accordance with regulations;When necessary, choose a professional third-party testing institution to limit the material detection of export products, so as to avoid unnecessary losses.
