2. REACH / SVHC Declaration
We declare that, to the best of our knowledge and based on the declarations obtained from our suppliers, the product complies with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (REACH) and UK REACH. The product does not contain Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) from the ECHA Candidate List in a concentration exceeding 0.1% by weight of any article, with the following note:
- The polymer enclosure is polycarbonate, produced from Bisphenol A (BPA), which is on the SVHC Candidate List. Residual free BPA in the finished, polymerised part is below the 0.1% w/w threshold per the filament supplier's declaration.
Where an SVHC is present above 0.1% w/w in the future, safe-use information will be provided to recipients as required by REACH Article 33.
3. Basis of declaration
This declaration is issued on the basis of supplier RoHS/REACH declarations and material data held in the product's technical documentation file, collected against the as-built bill of materials. It is self-declared; no notified body is involved.
