Updated SATRA RSLs now available

SATRA RSLs are revised every six months.

The September 2024 issues of SATRA’s Restricted Substances Lists (RSLs) are now available to download from the SATRA website. SATRA has published three RSLs which contain information about restricted substances that are applicable to materials typically used in footwear, furniture and consumer products. These documents concisely explain the legislation relevant to each individual substance, list the maximum permitted concentration of each substance, and include references to the national, international and SATRA test methods that can be utilised to assess conformity with the legislation.

SATRA revises these RSLs every six months to include any changes to restricted substances legislation that are relevant to the footwear, furniture and consumer products sectors – such as amendments to REACH (Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006) Annex XVII, UK REACH and the POP Regulation (EU) 2019/1021. The REACH Annex XVII entry 63 requirement is extended from limiting total lead in jewellery and children’s items to also include PVC articles which applies from 29th November 2024.

The September 2024 issues of SATRA’s footwear, furniture and consumer products RSLs are available to download here.
