REACH Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) Risk Assessment Services
According to Article 33(1) of the REACH Regulation, EC (No.) 1907/2006, it is an obligation to communicate information about the presence of REACH SVHCs down the supply chain. In fact, retailers are required to respond to consumer enquiries within 45 days.
The management of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs) in articles has caused tremendous difficulties for non-EU manufacturers, EU importers, and retailers due to the lack of transparency across the supply chain with regards to the chemicals used in articles. It is imperative that manufacturers, importers, and retailers be aware of any SVHCs present in any of the articles prior to sale. Manufacturers need to pass all pertinent information down the supply chain to the importers and retailers, so that this information can, in turn, be passed on to consumers upon request.

Based on the outcome of such reports, manufacturers or importers may choose to conduct specific SVHCs tests on selected high risk products or even components only.
