How can I achieve SVHC compliance in accordance with REACH regulation? Firstly, you need to identify all possible substances of very high concern (SVHC) and restricted substances in your products. You may do so by carrying out SVHC testing by yourself or asking your suppliers to carry out testing in the same supply chain. After knowing the existence and concentration of SVHC in your product, you could adopt the following measures to achieve REACH compliance:
Newsletter Volume Two, 2010
∙Notification: Submit notification to European Chemical Agency (ECHA) if any SVHC present in an article has a concentration above 0.1% (w/w) and the total amount of the SVHC exceeds 1 tonne per annum per producer or importer. The SVHC candidate list will be regularly updated from time to time.
∙Communication Requirement: If a SVHC is present in your product with a concentration above 0.1% (w/w), you are obliged to inform the recipients of the article along the supply chain about the chemical name(s) and how the article can be safely used. REACH further requires this information be made available within 45 days upon consumer request.;
∙Restriction and Authorization: Those listed SVHC in Annex XIV of REACH (restricted substances) will not be allowed to be used, placed on the market or imported into the EU after a date to be set unless the company is granted an authorization. You shall try to avoid using any SHVC in your products or import any products containing SVHC with a
concentration above 0.1%(w/w).
