We also have to comply with the Europe-wide Regulation on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH). We therefore need to ensure that our products do not contain any substances that are classified as substances of very high concern (SVHC). (SVHC = substances of very high concern)
We expect our suppliers to declare the conformity of their products and components with regard to SVHC and REACH and to confirm conformity on the delivery documents or enclose separate declarations of conformity.
