Request for REACH certification - Moulded plastic devices

[chris1price]

Hi

My company supplies purchases basic moulded plastic devices and sells them on to pharmaceutical companies. In the past we have sent questionnaires to our suppliers asking whether they comply with the REACH regulations (which they say they do) and similarly we have recieved questionnaires from our customers.

I have now received a formal contract from a customer stating that upon request, we shall supply them with a "copy of the REACH pre-registration and the ECHA registration confirmation". The contract continues by implying significant penalties for not supplying it.

Is this becoming a standard request from customers? How are others dealing with such requests?

I'll be interested in others experiences.

I have not seen this before, but was expecting it. We should expect more in the future.

It has started......

(and the penalties do not surprise me. Without (in the end) REACH registration, you can not use that material).
