Under CLP, the act of "Placing on the market” determines the point at which the CLP requirements apply to general chemicals (substances and or mixtures) ‘supplied’ in the European Union (EU). This includes toll manufactured chemicals (chemicals formulated by one company for another company).
This guidance explains the consequences for FEICA members of the "placing on the market" definition.

The SCEDs concept was initiated in 2012 and the activity has since been integrated into the "Chemical Safety Report/Exposure Scenario 2018 Roadmap" - action 2.5, to assist registrants with the next REACH registration deadline.
In this context the SCEDs facilitate the harmonisation and communication of the conditions of safe use of consumer products along the supply chain. Consequently, they document typical conditions of use expressed in a format that can be fed into the commonly applied exposure assessment tools.
SCEDs are intended to represent realistic assumptions for consumer exposure assessments, provided in the form of ‘factsheets’.
This document contains the four FEICA SCED-factsheets developed so far, that cover the following adhesive and sealant products: universal glues, glues for DIY-use, spray glues, and joint sealants.
Given that SCEDs are meant to cover direct uses of consumer products/articles, an additional SCED to cover glues actively marketed for use by children is under development. Furthermore, a background document, aiming to justify our values, is also under development and will be published on the website as supporting paper.
Guidance on the use of the SCEDs is also available on FEICA's public website.
ECHA Newsletter 2016 Issue 1, February: Supply Chain communication - help yourself, use the tools
ECHA, sector associations and EU Member States have worked for two years to develop tools and templates to improve communication on safe use in the supply chain. The work has got off to a promising start: new tools that help both registrants and downstream users have already been published and many more are in the pipeline.
In this article ECHA has interviewed Divina Gómez, Regulatory Affairs Manager at FEICA, about the use maps being developed for the adhesive and sealant industry helping them to prepare more realistic safety assessments for their REACH registrations.
