Restrictions on the use of PAHs tightened under REACh

The EU Commission has extended the restrictions on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to include a further 5 applications. These are PAHs used in granulates and mulches for outdoor sports and play applications. Failures to comply can be punished as a criminal offence.

In terms of (EU) Regulation 2021/1199, Annex XVII to (EC) REACh Regulation No. 1907/2006, the restrictions on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been extended to include a further 5 applications.
