Données sur la liste des substances candidates dans les articles

The Information on Candidate List substances in articles contains the number of notifications, the article categories and the article types notified for use by consumers. It also contains the identified uses of the Candidate List substances where a registrant has linked the use to an Article Category in the use descriptor system.

The fact that an article contains an SVHC does not necessarily mean that consumers are exposed to it or that there is a risk for consumers.

Importers and producers of articles have to submit a notification to ECHA if a Candidate List substance is present in their articles above one tonne per year and in a concentration above 0.1% weight by weight. In some cases, in particular for articles produced in the EU, the use of the SVHC in articles will already have been covered in the registration dossier for the substance. In such cases, no separate notification by the article producer needs to be made to ECHA.

The information published does not provide a comprehensive picture of the presence of Candidate List substances in articles on the EU market. This is because, so far, ECHA has only received a limited number of notifications. In addition, the information on the article type and the use in articles in registration dossiers is usually not very specific. Consequently, it is possible that also other articles contain Candidate List substances than those mentioned in the annexed data. Furthermore, also other Candidate List substances than those so far notified may be present in articles on the EU market.
