About the list
Annex XIII to the REACH Regulation sets criteria for substances that are persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT) or very persistent and very bioaccumulative (vPvB). This list also includes substances that are Persistent, Mobile and Toxic (PMT) and very persistent and very mobile (vPvM).
In addition to the substances listed in ECHA's official PBT assessment list, we have supplemented the list with additional CAS/EC numbers from reliable sources, where we have also chosen to include potential PBT/vPvB. The reason for this is that when there are uncertainties and gray areas about whether it is harmful or not, our reasoning is to err on the side of caution and flag a product too much rather than too little.
Besides a range of CAS and EC numbers that generates a match, we also look for these hazard statements on product level:
EUH440, EUH441, EUH450, EUH451.
