What happens after substance evaluation?

What happens after substance evaluation?

If, after review of the available and new data, the evaluating Member State considers that the use of the substance poses a risk, it may then proceed with follow-up actions to substance evaluation.

The following options may address the concern:

  • A proposal for harmonised classification and labelling for carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction, respiratory sensitiser or other effects.
  • A proposal to identify the substance as a substance of very high concern (SVHC).
  • A proposal to restrict the substance.
  • Actions outside the scope of REACH such as a proposal for EU-wide occupational exposure limits, national measures or voluntary industry actions.
