By the end of December 2022, ECHA had published more than 8.9 million SCIP notifications on SVHC substances in products.

By the end of December 2022, ECHA had published more than 8.9 million SCIP notifications on SVHC substances in products. The public can query the SCIP database by retrieving the article name, brand, product category, material type, substance name and SCIP number. The opening of the data helps consumers make more intelligent and sustainable consumption choices. Waste operators can use these data to improve the reuse of goods and material recycling, and increase their understanding of harmful chemicals in the supply chain, And help promote the phase out of these harmful chemicals. The information published in the SCIP database will help enterprises quickly identify SVHC high-risk substances, help enterprises achieve green supply chain management, and reduce the risk of violations.

Notify the material situation

In the notification submitted, lead is the most involved substance, followed by lead oxide and boron trioxide. The top 10 SVHC substances involved in the notification are as follows:

Background of SCIP notification

The full name of SCIP is Substances of Concern In articles as such or in complex objects (Products). The SCIP database is a database of information about substances of high concern in articles or complex articles based on the Waste and Recycling Certification Directives (WFD Directive).

SCIP notification, that is, all articles with substances of very high concern (SVHC) exceeding 0.1 wt% on the EU market concerning REACH regulations should be submitted to the SCIP database by EU manufacturers and assemblers, EU importers, EU distributors of the articles and other participants in the supply chain who put the articles on the market. It should be noted that ECHA will release the news on October 25, 2022, The obligation to submit SCIP notifications has been extended to Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway in the European Economic Area (EEA). From November 7, 2022, companies in Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway that meet the notification conditions need to submit notifications to the SCIP database.

Information required for SCIP notification: information used to identify articles. Required information includes article name, initial article identification information (type), initial article identification information (value), article classification, material or mixture classification, whether it is manufactured in the EU, etc; SVHC substance information in the article. The required information includes substance information and substance content range; Information on safe use.

Notification method: SCIP notification can prepare data through IUCLID offline software or IUCLID cloud service in ECHA cloud, and select system to system or complete notification submission through ECHA online account.
