Directive (EC) No. 1907/2006 / REACH Regulation
The regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 (REACH Regulation) is an EU chemicals ordinance, which came into
force on June 1, 2007. REACH stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chem-
icals. This regulation applies to all industry sectors, including mechanical engineering and the automotive
industry. Any required actions arising from the regulation are determined by the role of the relevant entity
within the supply chain.
In terms of REACH, Walter dreizler GmbH is a downstream user and therefore not responsible for pre/reg-
istration of materials.
Prefabricated materials and working/auxiliary materials required for the manufacture of our products are
sourced from our suppliers. While we process their materials, our suppliers have sole responsibility for the
preregistration and/or later registration of these materials. We fully comply with our duty of information as
a downstream user in the supply chain.
We have already contacted our suppliers in order to continue supplying products of immaculate quality. Ac-
cording to our suppliers, preregistration and/or a later final registration is underway. According to latest in-
formation, our company will not face any problems regarding the supply of primary products in terms of
REACH implementation.
