Mark a Constituent as Exempt under EU REACH¶
Tip
Some chemicals (constituents) are exempt from regulatory registration under EU REACH.
There are regulation-specific options to indicate why a constituent is exempt, as well the option to add supporting documentation. Chemicals may only be exempt from registration under specific amounts (tonnage), so companies may still register if they require larger volumes.
Marking a constituent as exempt in Active Steward is reflected at the product level, making it easy to see the registration status of all constituents that make up that product.
