Dear colleagues,
As a consequence of enforcement of the legal prohibition of the 4 below listed phthalates with effect from 21.02.2014 some materials and products, where these substances would be present, might be got the status “NOT_OK”. Due to safety precautions of our compliance department this substances obtain now the CLEAR List status “prohibited” and “not detectable” 12 months prior to the sunset date (enforcement of the legal prohibition).
This means materials/products, which currently contain these substances and do not exceed the currently valid limit (1000 mg/kg), are still compliant.
The affected materials will be currently inspected and handled by our CLEAR SAM Experts.
DIBP – Di-iso-buthylphthalate
DBP - Dibuthylphthalate
BBP - Butylbenzyphthalate
DEHP – Di-82-ethylhexyl)-phthalate
In terms of questions please feel free to contact me.
Best regards,
Alex
