REACH
No Data No Market
Since 06/2007 the new European chemicals legislation became effective:
The REACH regulation (Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals, regulation (EG) No. 1907/2006) is the largest EU legislative process to date. It harmonizes the previous chemicals legislation. Its principle: no data - no market. This means that within the area of validity only those chemicals can be traded that have been registered. REACH is based on the principle of self-responsibility of the industry and generally applies to all chemical substances. Self-responsibilty also means, that manufacturers and importers are responsible for the security of their chemicals. It must be ensured, that all intended usage in the product chain is safe to handle, without being a danger to processors, consumers or the environment.
Up to 1981 there was no evaluation of chemicals within the EU. All chemicals which were registered on the EU market are now considered as so-called "existing substances". It is only since 1982 that new substances have had to be examined and described before they are marketed. Through the REACH directive in future adequate information about the effects of most existing substances on human health and the environment will be available.
