In 2010, article 57 of the European Reach regulation requires notification of all items containing SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) listed in the candidate list, above a concentration of 0.1% weight. All Alpi woods comply with these requirements. The following information is provided in order to fulfill the obligations of this regulation:
- Alpi identifies itself as a “downstream user”, according to REACH
- Articles produced by Alpi, under normal or reasonably foreseeable conditions of use, do not release substances
- Items supplied by Alpi S.p.A. (veneers, sawn wood and solid multilaminar materials) do not contain “SVHC” substances listed in the candidate list in amounts equal to or above 0.1% (weight/weight);
- Alpi S.p.A. has sent its upstream suppliers a request for confirmation of pre-registration (or registration) of substances (either the substances themselves or those within mixes/preparations) and declaration of the amount of SVHC substances.
If this declaration changes at a future date, all Alpi clients will be notified within 45 days, as foreseen by the current legislation.
