The UK Health and Safety Executive has expanded the UK REACH Candidate List with 15 new Substances of Very High Concern (SVHCs), increasing compliance obligations for businesses across supply chains. The newly listed substances are primarily linked to carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and reproductive toxicity, requiring immediate communication, SDS updates, and potential notifications where present above 0.1% w/w. The 15 newly added substances/substance groups include: 2,2',6,6'-Tetrabromo-4,4'-isopropylidenediphenol (TBBPA) BMP / TBNPA / 2,3-DBPA Lysmeral Omnirad 6,6'-Di-tert-butyl-2,2'-methylenedi-p-cresol (DBMC) Tetra-PSCA Barium diboron tetraoxide Tetraglyme Bis(α,α-dimethylbenzyl) peroxide Dioctyltin dilaurate (DOTL) and related derivatives Diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide N-(Hydroxymethyl)acrylamide Orthoboric acid, sodium salts Reactive Brown 51 Tris(2-methoxyethoxy)vinylsilane This update raises market compliance pressure for chemical, electronics, textile, coatings, and plastics industries.
