BATH, UK – The BOMcheck substances declaration web database published a screening for the electrotechnical industry that reportedly reduces the time and cost for REACH compliance by 66%.

The REACH Candidate List screening screens out 95 substances that aren’t normally found in parts and materials in the electrotechnical industry.  Companies can use this screening to reduce the number of REACH Candidate List substances they need to investigate from 163 down to 68. 

Guidance shows 14 of the remaining 68 substances are only found in exotic materials and components, the collaboration says.

The free screening is available at https://www.bomcheck.net/reach/reach-article-33-substance-declarations. 

BOMcheck is an industry collaboration led by Philips, Siemens, GE, Osram, Sony Mobile, Schneider Electric, Toshiba, Agfa, Texas Instruments and TE Connectivity.
