ECHA publishes new guidance on waste and recovered substances

The new guidance is intended for companies who recycle and recover as recycled or recovered chemical substances do not necessarily need to be registered under REACH.

The guidance provides advice on the obligations under REACH and clarifies the criteria that need to be met in order for companies to benefit from that exemption. Companies who do not fulfil these obligations will have to register their recycled or recovered chemical substances. It also explains their obligation to share information on recycled and recovered substances in the supply chain.
