The 13 EU lists Verachek screens.
Every submission is checked against all of them, by CAS number, using a versioned knowledge base with a visible "as of" date. Here is what each list covers and how Verachek applies it.
The lists, one by one
REACH SVHC Candidate List
REACHSubstances of Very High Concern identified for eventual authorisation: CMRs, PBT/vPvB and equivalent-concern substances. Updated roughly twice a year.
REACH Annex XIV: Authorisation List
REACHSVHCs that may not be placed on the market or used after their sunset date without an authorisation.
REACH Annex XVII: Restrictions
REACHConditions or bans on the manufacture, placing on the market or use of specific substances, often by article category (toys, textiles, consumer goods).
RoHS Annex II
ElectronicsLead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, PBDE and four phthalates in electrical and electronic equipment, measured in homogeneous materials.
Battery Regulation
BatteriesSubstance restrictions for all battery categories, alongside labelling, due-diligence and the coming battery passport.
POPs Regulation
POPsThe EU implementation of the Stockholm Convention: persistent organic pollutants such as PFOA, PFHxS, decaBDE and SCCPs, with very low limits.
PFAS: restrictions & the universal proposal
PFASExisting restrictions on PFOA, PFHxS and C9–C14 PFCAs, plus the proposed restriction of more than 10,000 PFAS, now in its decisive phase.
CLP Annex VI: Harmonised classification
CLPLegally binding hazard classifications (carcinogen, mutagen, reprotoxic, sensitiser…) that drive labelling and many downstream restrictions.
Biocidal Products Regulation
BPRActive substances used in biocidal products and treated articles; only approved substances from approved suppliers may be used.
F-Gas Regulation
F-GasFluorinated greenhouse gases (HFCs, PFCs, SF₆) in refrigeration, foams, aerosols and electrical switchgear.
Ozone-Depleting Substances
ODSCFCs, HCFCs, halons and other controlled substances under the Montreal Protocol.
Critical Raw Materials
CRMNot a restriction: the EU's strategic and critical raw-materials lists, relevant to supply-risk reporting and the Digital Product Passport.
CoRAP: Substance evaluation
Watch-listSubstances scheduled for evaluation by Member States because of a suspected risk, an early signal of future SVHC or restriction action.
Scope. Verachek's launch scope is the EU/EEA. UK REACH, US TSCA and other jurisdictions are on the roadmap and are not implied by any verdict. Verachek is an automated screening aid, not legal advice, see the disclaimer.
