PREAMBLE: REACH - Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals [
go to this PREAMBLE]
... (29) Since
producers and
importers of articles should be responsible for their articles, it is appropriate to impose a
registration requirement on
substances which are intended to be released from articles and have not been
registered for that use. In the case of
substances of very high concern which are present in articles above tonnage and
concentration thresholds, where exposure to the substance cannot be excluded and where the substance has not been
registered by any person for this use, the
Agency should be notified. The
Agency should also be empowered to request that a
registration be submitted if it has grounds for suspecting that the release of a substance from the article may present a risk to human
health or the environment and the substance is present in those articles in quantities totalling over one tonne per producer
or
importer per year. The
Agency should consider the need for a proposal for a
restriction where it considers that the use of such
substances in articles poses a risk to human health or the environment that is not adequately controlled. ...
... (56) Part of the responsibility of
manufacturers or
importers for the management of the risks of
substances is the communication of information on these
substances to other professionals such as
downstream users or
distributors. In addition,
producers or
importers of articles should
supply information on the safe use of articles to industrial and professional users, and consumers on request. This important responsibility
should also apply throughout the
supply chain to enable all actors to meet their responsibility in relation to management of risks arising from the use of
substances. ...
