REACH (1907/2006/EG) is an EU regulation which entered into force on 1st June 2007 and is addressing the production and use of chemical substances on the basis of an SVHC candidate list (SVHC = Substances of Very High Concern).
Based on the information provided to us by our material suppliers, we assure you that all printed circuit boards and products supplied by Multi Circuit Boards Ltd. fully comply with the requirements of the REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006. In particular, they do not contain any substances that a) are listed in the REACH Candidate List (SVHC) and exceed a concentration of 0.1 per cent by weight, b) are listed in REACH Annex XIV (Authorisation), or c) fall under the restrictions of REACH Annex XVII.
Multi Circuit Boards Ltd. is among the „downstream users” according to REACH. You procure exclusively non-chemical articles from us which are not intended to release any substance under normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of use. Therefore, Multi Circuit Boards Ltd. is not subject to obligational registration nor is it bound to the creation of safety data sheets.
Multi-CB pays particular attention to long-term security of supply and continuity. We are in constant contact with our suppliers regarding the substances used. Each time the SVHC candidate list is revised, the substances used are rechecked. We will inform our customers immediately in accordance with REACH Art. 33, if ingredients of our products (with a content of> 0.1% by mass) are classified as of very high concern by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). However, we do not expect this to happen.
In addition, we also refrain from using decabromodiphenyl ether (DecaBDE), perfluorooctane sulfonates (PFOS), polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and persistent organic pollutants (POP).
