REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals) is an EU regulation (EC 1907/2006) aimed at protecting human health and the environment from risks posed by chemical substances. In electronics, including displays, REACH governs the use of materials containing certain chemicals. Manufacturers, importers, and suppliers must declare substances of very high concern (SVHC) if their concentration exceeds 0.1% of component mass. REACH compliance is mandatory for placing products on the EU market, both legally and environmentally, and is often documented in datasheets and manufacturer declarations.
