ECHA Proposes European Commission Add Seven Substances to Authorization List
HELSINKI — ECHA, the European Chemicals Agency, has recommended that the European Commission add seven substances to the Authorization List. Once on the list, companies will need to apply for authorization to continue using them.
ECHA reported that D4, D5 and D6 are considered harmful to the environment and human health. ECHA indicated that it prioritized these chemicals from the Candidate List because they are hazardous, produced in high volumes and widely used.
