For many aerospace companies, the complexity of REACH requirements poses a major challenge. REACH has an impact not only on internal processes but also on the entire supply chain. This means that airlines, OEMs, suppliers and MRO services need to comply with a variety of authorization and restriction requirements.
After expiry of the registration deadlines for large tonnages in 2010 and 2013, the last registration deadline for pre-registered substances will expire on 31 May 2018. By then the substances that are manufactured or imported in quantities of up to 100 tonnes per year must be registered. This last registration deadline particularly affects the aerospace industry, which now has the task of producing a registration dossier.

Event goal:

  • You will learn the basics about the REACH Regulation: Which substances are affected and what does REACH require?
  • What does conformity with REACH mean for products (taking as an example cadmium and hard-chromium plated surfaces or corrosion protection using chromium)
  • How to develop risk communication and risk management measures
  • Who is responsible for what in the supply chain and can tasks be delegated?
