Quality Assurance REACH:
|
“Committed to continually improving customer satisfaction through focused quality objectives, consistent manufacture and timely delivery.”
|
To our valued customers,
ECHA (the European Chemicals Agency) which is the registrar for REACH states that if articles are imported into the EU containing any REACH (SVHC) listed substances and the articles do not intentionally release substances to the environment, then those substances are exempt from REACH.
Teledyne Storm Products does not manufacture basic chemical substances.
We have contacted each of our suppliers with a letter requesting responses to document their position with their REACH obligations. Our suppliers have confirmed that they do not intentionally add any SVHC listed substances to the compounds and concentrates employed in the manufacture of TSP wire and cable (articles). Moreover, our suppliers do not list these substances as an ingredient, by-product, or impurity in the purchased raw materials used to make these products, at or above any regulatory thresholds, and our manufacturing process does not create these substances. Subsequently Teledyne Storm Products’ articles cannot intentionally release these substances to the environment.
The ECHA further states that “Companies that are not established in the EU have no obligations to under REACH and cannot pre-register and register”. As Teledyne Storm Products is not established in the EU, Teledyne Storm Products is not required to pre-register or register articles.
We understand the importance to you, our customers, of compliance to the REACH directives. Teledyne Storm Products will continue to review our supplier compliance to ensure continued support of the REACH initiatives.
