Merck successfully completes the second REACH registration phase
"In parallel to the now well-established registration procedures, we have begun to prepare the application for authorization of SVHC substances," says Michael Siebold, head of the Corporate Regulatory Affairs unit and responsible for product safety in the Merck Group. SVHC stands for Substance of Very High Concern. "As these substances are under great pressure for substitution and are ultimately to disappear from the EU market, for all companies in the supply chain this involves a high economic risk and expense for successfully completing an authorization procedure."
