The REACH legislation creates a system for the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and restriction of CHemicals in the European Union. By eliminating chemicals on the REACH Restricted Substances List and the Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) List, manufacturers help to protect human health and the environment.

The RoHS legislation seeks to restrict certain hazardous substances from electrical and electronic equipment made or imported into the European Union. This helps protect workers and the environment, especially during recycling of electronic goods.
