\"QUE-ES-EL-REACH-EN\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In our daily life we are surrounded by chemicals.<\/p>\n

To improve protection against risks against the chemicals<\/strong>, The European Union adopted on December 18th<\/sup> 2016 the REACH (abbreviated name of its origin in English R<\/em><\/strong>egistration, E<\/strong>valuation, A<\/strong>uthorisation and restriction of CH<\/strong>emicals<\/em>) Regulation.<\/p>\n

What are the REACH targets?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

This Regulation regulates the production and the use of chemical substances and their potential impact on both human health and on the environment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It is considered today as the most complex legislation<\/strong> elaborated by the European Union and the most important in the last 20 years<\/strong>. It took 7 years to write the 849 pages that compose it.<\/p>\n

To date it is the strictest legislation regulating the quimical substances <\/strong>with impact in all industries around the world. REACH applies to certain substances that are part of objects and any company importing goods in Europe can be affected.<\/p>\n

How to control compliance of REACH?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Approximately 143,000 commercialized chemical substances were pre-registered until the deadline of December 1st<\/sup> 2008. The reason was that the pre-registered substances had a longer term for the registration process.<\/p>\n

Currently the supply of substances to the European market that have not been pre-registered or registered is illegal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

What other contributions does REACH?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

REACH<\/strong> also regulates the use of “Chemical Substances of Very High Concern<\/strong>”\u00a0 (abbreviated SVHC<\/strong>, of English S<\/em><\/strong>ubstances of V<\/strong>ery H<\/strong>igh C<\/strong>oncern<\/em>) because of their negative impact in the human health or the environment.<\/p>\n

Since June 1st <\/sup>2011, the European Chemical Agency<\/strong> (also known as ECHA<\/strong> from the English E<\/strong>uropean Ch<\/strong>emical A<\/strong>gency) must be notified of the presence of SVHCs<\/strong> in articles in which the total quantity used is greater than 1 ton per year<\/strong> and are present in more than 0,1% of the mass of the object.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some uses of theses substances may be subject to prior ECHA Authorization<\/strong>. Applicants should include plans to achieve an alternative to the use of these substances for a safer alternative.<\/p>\n

The list of SVHC substances is in continuous evolution. In this link you can download the complete list of Included Substances<\/strong> updated as of January 2017 \u00a0https:\/\/echa.europa.eu\/en\/information-on-chemicals\/registered-substances<\/a>.\u00a0You can also download the list of Candidate Substances<\/strong> (pending of decision) that are currently under study https:\/\/echa.europa.eu\/en\/candidate-list-table<\/a><\/p>\n

How does REACH affect steel?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the composition of steel no substance regulated by this Regulation has been deliberately included. Therefore, steel products are not affected by this Regulation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our special steels can be used in the processes of our customers with total guarantee.<\/strong><\/p>\n
