In response to REACH regulation, Hunston always controls our suppliers have confirmed that the necessary raw materials will be available under REACH.

The Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (1907/2006/EC (REACH)) Regulation is a European Community Regulation on chemicals and their safe use and entered into force on 1st June 2007. This regulation improves the protection of human health and the environment through the better and earlier identification of the intrinsic properties of chemical substances.

For potentially hazardous substances to be in the scope of REACH, they must first be identified as Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). At the request of member states or the European Commission. Once a substance is confirmed as an SVHC, it is added to the Candidate List, which contains substances whose priority is determined by the ECHA for possible inclusion on the Authorization List.

The Authorization List restricts the use of certain substances in the European Union without authorization from the ECHA.

Certain substances are restricted from being manufactured, marketed, or used across the EU by REACH Annex XVII, also known as the restricted substances list, whether authorized or not. This is because these substances are deemed to pose a substantial risk to human health and the environment. Please check more detail about EU REACH on the ECHA website.

The related REACH information, including REACH compliance certification, is available on our website.
