REACH Regulation (EC1907/2006) Timeline

Intertek's portfolio of services provides comprehensive solutions to meet each REACH deadline that impacts your business.

REACH is a complex law that came into force in June 2007, with a multi-phased implementation approach spanning over an 11 year period of time. The chart below outlines the REACH Regulation timeline:
