12 new Annex XIV substances: how to succeed in your application for Authorisation under REACH

With a dozen dossiers submitted to ECHA, covering about 20 uses and 20 legal entities, EcoMundo is a key actor of REACH Authorisation applications in Europe. This expertise is recognized by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA): all the dossiers submitted since 2015 have been granted the requested review periods, including those with 12-year durations.

We are pleased to announce a new webinar during which EcoMundo’s experts will share their experience of Authorisation, present the keys of a successful application and give an insight of the challenges associated with the new substances of Annex XIV.

 

Twelve new substances: specificities, challenges and impacts

The new substances of Annex XIV will impact several sectors in Europe, and notably pharmaceutical and aero/space industries since they are involved in many uses.  

These substances have specific toxicological and ecotoxicological properties compared to the previous substances already in Annex XIV: carcinogenic, PBT and vPvB for anthracene oil and pitch, coal tar; endocrine disrupting properties for the environment for nonylphenol and 4-tert-OPnEO. Dedicated methodologies will have to be developed in order to support applications, notably regarding:

  • Exposure assessment

  • Risk characterisation

  • Monetisation of impacts

In addition, choices will have to be made regarding route of Authorisation that will be followed: adequate control or socio-economic assessment.

EcoMundo’s experts will develop these issues, and highlight the implications for applications for Authorisation.

 

Application for Authorisation: keys of success

A significant refinement was observed over the last years in terms of level of requirements for applications for Authorisation, regarding all sections of the dossiers:

  • Chemical Safety Report

  • Analysis of Alternatives

  • Socio-Economic Analysis

EcoMundo’s experts will identify the key challenges and the main elements of success, based on their direct experience of such dossiers for several high-level industrial sectors (aeronautics, aerospace, defence, …)
