Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) Screening
SVHC screening evaluates products and materials for the presence of Substances of Very High Concern under the European Union’s REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006. Pentyl Labs provides SVHC review and screening services to support regulatory compliance, supply chain transparency, and product stewardship.
Substances of Very High Concern are chemicals that may pose serious risks to human health or the environment. These substances include carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, persistent and bioaccumulative compounds, and substances with equivalent levels of concern. The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) maintains and regularly updates the SVHC Candidate List, which currently contains over 240 substances.
SVHC screening helps manufacturers understand whether their products, formulations, or raw materials may contain listed SVHCs above regulatory thresholds. Under REACH, suppliers must communicate the presence of SVHCs when concentrations exceed 0.1% w/w in articles. Accurate screening supports compliance with notification, communication, and authorization obligations.
Pentyl Labs conducts SVHC screening through a structured review process. This may include ingredient list evaluation, raw material disclosure review, safety data assessment, and targeted analytical testing when needed. The approach helps identify potential SVHC risks early and supports informed decision-making.
Manufacturers often request SVHC screening during product development, reformulation, supplier qualification, or before placing products on the EU market. Screening also supports customer inquiries, retailer requirements, and internal compliance programs.
SVHC screening applies to a wide range of products, including cosmetics, personal care items, cleaning products, consumer goods, packaging materials, and raw ingredients. The service helps companies manage regulatory risk and improve supply chain transparency.
This screening is commonly included within broader Regulatory Compliance Services and Chemical Analysis Services. Guidance from ECHA defines SVHC listing criteria, communication requirements, and Annex XIV authorization obligations used during evaluations.
Overall, SVHC screening provides practical insight into regulatory risk, supports REACH compliance, and helps manufacturers demonstrate responsible chemical management across global markets.
