REACH – European Chemicals Legislation

On June 1, 2007, the regulation No. 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council entered into effect. This regulation – referred to as REACH in the following – relates to the registration, evaluation and authorisation of chemical substances and the relative restrictions.

REACH

The purpose of Regulation (EC) 1907/2006 is to ensure a high level of protection of human health and the environment. According  to this commonly called REACH regulation, most chemical substances and mixtures must be pre-registered. As a downstream user, RONDA does not have to register any substances or notify the European Chemical Agency (ECHA) on any of the substances/mixtures use. We therefore insist that suppliers pre-register all substances manufactured in or imported into the EU. The suppliers are likewise responsible to manage their supply chain accordingly and ensure that their suppliers comply with the REACH regulation.

Declaration

RONDA only supplies products that:

  • contain substances registered under REACH
  • do not contain substances of very high concern (SVHC-241) in the ECHA list (published on 27 June 2024 according to Art. 59(10) of the REACH Regulation; see exemptions and note in the PDF)
  • do not contain substances listed under REACH Annex XIV
  • do not contain substances listed under REACH Annex XVII

RONDA regularly screens the supply base against above requirements and additions to the candidate list and will update this statement. Consequently, customers will at all times be in a position to review at ronda.ch all relevant information in accordance with art. 33 in respect of downstream purchasers and users. Thus RONDA fulfills its obligation to disclose information concerning substances contained in its products in compliance with art. 33 of the above-mentioned regulation.
