    FEICA Webinar - REACH Restriction on synthetic polymer microparticles: FEICA Guidance supports members with implementation


    The webinar addressed the REACH restriction on synthetic polymer microparticles (SPM), highlighting its complexity and upcoming deadlines. Experts from the FEICA Task Force shared updates on the regulation and introduced a tool to estimate environmental emissions. The session aimed to help members prepare for compliance through practical guidance and cross-functional insights.

    In case you missed the webinar, we have listed the key takeaways here:

    • Companies must meet two key obligations: (1) provide disposal instructions via labels, leaflets, or SDS depending on the user; and (2) submit annual SPM emission reports as well as polymer identities to ECHA by legal entity and use. The first report is due by 31 May 2027, covering 2026 activities. Requirements vary by supply chain role.

    • FEICA published its first SPM restriction guidance in November 2023, based on Regulation (EU) 2023/2055. It has since been updated with input from ECHA and the Commission. The guidance helps members understand scope, obligations, and compliance tools like the Use Map, generic polymer identities and emission calculator. The guidance is available in the Extranet here. 

    The webinar recording can be found HERE.

    FEICA Stakeholder Forum on REACH – Presentation Slides

    On 11 June 2025, FEICA held a Stakeholder Forum in Brussels to discuss the implications of the ongoing REACH revision. The Forum brought together representatives from sectors such as textiles and apparel, automotive, aerospace and defence, flexible and carton packaging, retail and wholesale, printing, construction equipment and infrastructure, environmental packaging, tyre and rubber manufacturing, digital technology, and downstream chemical users. These are the key takeaways from FEICA’s first Stakeholder Forum:

    - Shared challenges call for shared solutions - End-user markets across sectors face similar impacts from REACH, from reformulation needs to innovation delays, making collaboration essential

    - A strong, unified voice matters - By aligning on common concerns, stakeholders can more effectively advocate for a simplified, innovation-friendly REACH framework

    - The Stakeholder Forum will serve as a recurring platform to address regulatory and strategic topics of shared relevance, reinforcing FEICA’s commitment to inclusive, cross-sector collaboration

    The presentation slides of the session can be viewed/downloaded HERE.

    The press release on FEICA’s first Stakeholder Forum can be consulted here.
