REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliance Statement REACH (Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006) is a European Union regulation dated 18th December 2006 which came in to force on 1st June 2007 and has a phase in period up to 2018. REACH addresses the production and use of chemical substances, and their potential impacts on both human health and the environment. REACH aims to improve the protection of human health and the environment through the better and earlier identification of the intrinsic properties of chemical substances. This is done by the four processes of REACH, namely the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals. Under the definition of the REACH regulations NP is classified as a distributor of “articles with no intended release”. REACH requires article suppliers to inform recipients if an article contains a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) in excess of 0.1% by weight. We have communicated with our supply chain and analysed the materials used in our products. Our products DO NOT CONTAIN* any substances on the SVHC list. Since the complete list of SVHCs will be released in stages, NP will continue to monitor the situation to ensure that all our products remain compliant.
