70% of enterprises do not know the REACH command light enterprise or suffer heavy losses


The one-year transition period, which is considered to be the most complicated technical trade measure in the world, is officially implemented. From June 1st to December 1st this year, related enterprises that failed to pre-register within the deadline will be exported to the EU. The business will be suspended. According to a survey conducted by Zhongshan Inspection and Quarantine Bureau, 30% of enterprises understand part of the REACH system, and most of the enterprises they know are large-scale foreign-invested enterprises, and 70% of enterprises do not understand this. Relevant persons from the Inspection and Quarantine Bureau believe that there are many misunderstandings in the pre-registration of REACH. In order to export to the EU, it is necessary to respond positively and smoothly.

Textile and electronics will be hit hard

It is understood that the EU will carry out a series of work on registration, testing, evaluation and market access for about 30,000 kinds of chemical products and 3 million to 5 million kinds of applied chemicals. According to the REACH regulations, companies participating in pre-registration can enjoy a registration transition period of three and a half years, six years and 11 years. During this period, both import and export can proceed as usual, and the original market share and business continuity will not be damaged.

In the face of such complicated instructions, it is necessary to thoroughly understand it. Even European companies have to spend many years. For small and medium-sized enterprises that lack professional talents, it is possible to wait until they have a comprehensive understanding before deciding. Not allowed. Now that time is tight, companies should act now and choose a single representative that can be trusted and, with their help, speed up the understanding of REACH. Zhongshan Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau recommended.

It is estimated that the EU REACH regulation alone will increase the export cost of Chinese enterprises by more than 5% and the import cost by more than 6%. The data shows that in 2006, nearly 1,000 companies in the Zhongshan region exported to the EU for chemical, electronic, textile, and light industrial products, and the total value of exported goods was nearly 900 million US dollars. Once the system is implemented, the textile and electronics industries, the main pillar industries of Zhongshan City, will be seriously affected.

Joint registration reduces costs

In addition to the uninformed status of Qicheng enterprises, Zhongshan Inspection and Quarantine Bureau also found in the investigation that enterprises have misunderstandings about REACH pre-registration: they believe that REACH only involves petroleum, chemical and pharmaceutical industries; the time span for registration of various substances is very large. Can be slowly prepared; regulatory response is a matter of government agencies, some companies expect other companies to explore the road first; light industry, electromechanical, textile, lighting, automotive and other downstream industries consider themselves to be exempt from the scope of registration, so the implementation of the regulations is not Will have an impact on itself.

In fact, the above views are all wrong. Chemical producers, downstream users and traders, regardless of the form they export to Europe, will be involved.

The Zhongshan Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau recommends that enterprises communicate with upstream and downstream customers as soon as possible and prepare pre-registration materials. After completing the collection of pre-registered materials, enterprises can list the substances exported to the EU in accordance with REACH regulations. A list of all substances in the preparation, a list of the materials used in the processing and finished products, and the list of substances used in the finished product, clarifying the role and use of various substances, calculating the annual export level of the EU, and finally comparing the REACH list to the nature of the substance. And the tonnage level, etc., and finally the information is compiled into a form for submission to the European Chemicals Agency, and then enjoy the transition period.

Zhongshan Inspection and Quarantine Bureau reminds enterprises that pre-registration fees are not high. In order to reduce costs, REACH regulations allow and encourage joint registration of related enterprises. Joint registrations may jointly register the same type of substance, and companies can also share test and management fees. In addition, the joint registration has technical and scientific advantages, which can optimize the quality of the registration dossier and avoid the contradiction between the data submitted by the same substance to the Chemical Administration, making mutual reference possible and more comprehensive. The database can improve the quality of risk assessment.
