WHAT IS THE REACH REGULATION 1907/2006?
REACH is a regulation of the European Union, adopted to improve the protection of human health and the
environment from the risks that can be posed by chemicals, while enhancing the competitiveness of the EU
chemicals industry. REACH places the burden of proof on companies. To comply with the regulation, companies
must identify and manage the risks linked to the substances they manufacture and market in the EU. They have
to demonstrate to ECHA how the substance can be safely used, and they must communicate the risk
management measures to the users. If the risks cannot be managed, authorities can restrict the use of
substances in different ways. In the long run, the most hazardous substances should be substituted with less
dangerous ones. REACH stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals. It
entered into force on 1/JUN/2007.

‘ARTICLE’ COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS
REACH ANNEX XVII COMPLIANCE
Substances under Annex XVII are restricted either in full (not to be used at all) or for specific uses (can be used in
some uses but cannot be used in identified uses).
Applied Thermal Control has contacted all our suppliers and to the best of our knowledge, none of the articles that
we sell intentionally contain any of the Annex XVII substances currently on the candidate list in concentrations of
>0.1% by weight.
REACH ANNEX XIV COMPLIANCE
Substances under Annex XIV require authorization to use in the EU after sunset date, require communication to
downstream recipients when over threshold (0.1% w/w at article level) and require notification to ECHA when
SVHC over threshold and imported over 1000kg annually and use not already registered.
Applied Thermal Control has contacted all our suppliers and to the best of our knowledge, none of the articles that
we sell intentionally contain any of the Annex XVII substances currently on the candidate list in concentrations of
>0.1% by weight.
SVHC LIST COMPLIANCE
Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) require communication to downstream recipients when over threshold
(0.1% w/w at the article level), notification to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) when SVHC over
threshold and when imported over 1000kg annually and use not already registered.
Applied Thermal Control has contacted all our suppliers and to the best of our knowledge, none of the articles that
