ECHA Announces 6 SVHC Reviewed Substances

On September 1, 2023, the European Chemicals Administration (ECHA) announced a public review of six potential substances of high concern (SVHCs), of which dibutyl phthalate (DBP) was added to the official list of SVHC as early as October 2008. The second review of this substance was initiated to identify new types of hazards.

The public review will end on October 16, 2023, during which all stakeholders can submit their comments to ECHA. The 5 substances other than dibutyl phthalate (DBP) will be added to the official list of SVHC and become the 30th batch of SVHC substances if reviewed.
