REACH Compliance Testing of Textile Dyes for SVHC: Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

Standard-Related Information

The Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation is a comprehensive EU legislation that aims to improve the protection of human health and the environment from the risks posed by chemicals. REACH requires manufacturers and importers of chemical substances to register their products with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). One key aspect of REACH compliance is the testing of textile dyes for Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC).

The relevant standards governing REACH Compliance Testing of Textile Dyes for SVHC are:

  • ISO 14001:2015, Environmental management systems -- Requirements with guidance for use
  • ISO/IEC 17025:2005, General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories
  • EN 14041:2014, Textiles -- Determination of colour strength and lightfastness of dyes
  • These standards provide guidelines for textile manufacturers to ensure compliance with REACH regulations. EUROLABs laboratory testing service is designed to help textile companies meet these requirements.

    Standard Requirements and Needs

    The business and technical reasons for conducting REACH Compliance Testing of Textile Dyes for SVHC are:

  • To ensure compliance with REACH regulations
  • To prevent the importation or sale of non-compliant products
  • To maintain brand reputation and customer trust
  • To reduce potential liabilities associated with non-compliance
  • Consequences of not performing this test include:

  • Fines, penalties, and legal action from regulatory authorities

  • The risk factors associated with non-compliance include:

  • Exposure to hazardous chemicals
  • Potential harm to human health and the environment
  • Economic losses due to product recalls or bans
  • Test Conditions and Methodology

    Eurolabs laboratory testing service for REACH Compliance Testing of Textile Dyes for SVHC involves a step-by-step process:

    1. Sample preparation: textile samples are collected from the manufacturer

    2. Instrumentation: high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)

    3. Testing parameters:

    Chromatographic separation of dyes and impurities

    Detection and quantification of SVHCs

    4. Data analysis: results are compared to established reference values

    Test Reporting and Documentation

    Eurolab provides detailed test reports, including:

  • Sample identification and preparation procedures
  • Instrumentation used and calibration records
  • Testing parameters and conditions
  • Raw data and statistical analysis
  • Interpretation of results and conclusions
