As we enter the 4th quarter of 2020, we need to be aware that the coming year will see significant regulatory changes in the EU. The revised EU Waste Framework Directive (WFD) comes into effect. By January 5, 2021, all companies doing business in or importing into the EU will be required to report articles containing SVHCs into the Substances of Concern In Products (SCIP) database.
Additionally, after a one-year delay due to COVID-19, the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) comes into effect on May 26, 2021.
On top of these new requirements, REACH and RoHS Directive will be updated throughout the coming year as well.
If your company needs any assistance navigating these new requirements please let us know.
