REACH

REACH is a European Union Regulation (EC 1907/2006) on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals, entered into force on June 1, 2007.

One objective of this regulation is to improve, within the overall framework of sustainable development, the protection of human health and the environment from the risks of chemical substances. Sharp supports this objective and, under the Sharp Code of Conduct, is taking a proactive approach to comply with the regulations.

According to REACH Article 33.1 and 33.2 (duty to communicate information on substances in articles), suppliers are required to provide the recipients and, upon request, the consumers with information about the SVHC substance, when an article contains a substance from the SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) candidate list according to Article 59.1 or the Regulation 1907/2007 in a concentration of more than 0.1% of the weight of the article.
