Recommendation of eqo
ECHA emphasises the need for companies to comply with the requirements of the regulation and to fulfil their obligations under the regulation. If the content of SVHC substances in an article exceeds 0.1% (w/w), according to the Waste Framework Directive (WFD), from 5 January 2021, companies are required to carry out SCIP notification, and the SCIP notification information will be published on the ECHA official website. According to REACH regulation, if the content of SVHC substances in articles exceeds 0.1% (w/w), and the content of substances in articles exceeds 1 tonne/year/manufacturer or exporter needs to notify ECHA, and if the content of SVHC substances in products exceeds 0.1% (w/w), then they need to fulfill the obligation of information transmission. the SVHC list is updated twice a year, and with the continuous updating of SVHC list, enterprises are facing control and regulation. With the continuous updating of the SVHC list, enterprises are facing more and more control requirements. Enterprises are advised to investigate their supply chain as early as possible in order to cope with the regulatory changes.
