    What is the REACH Regulation?

    The REACH Regulation, also known as Reg. EC 1907/2006, was introduced by the European Commission in 2007. The purpose is to ensure the protection of human health and the environment against the hazards posed by chemical substances. Article 33 of the REACH Regulation states that consumers must be informed about the presence of Substances of Very High Concern (SCHCs) in products to guarantee their safe to use. We hereby meet this provision by making all relevant information about their specific car available to customers.
