August 31, 2017, official journal of the European Commission published the amending the Appendices to Annex XVII to Regulation (EU) No 1907/2006 of REACH. The prohibitive substances that are classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic or reproductive toxicant (CRM) have been added to 23 and the previous 2 kinds of CMR also get their updates. This amendment will take into force on the 20th day.
Entries 28, 29 and 30 of Annex XVII to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 prohibit the placing on the market or use for supply to the general public of substances that are classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic or reproductive toxicant (CMR), category 1A or 1B, and of mixtures containing such substances in specified concentrations. The substances concerned are listed in Appendices 1 to 6 to that Annex.
Annex XVII to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 is amended as follows:
(1) in Appendix 2, the following entries are inserted in the table in order of the index numbers set out therein:

C&K Testing reminds, CMRs are going to be prohibited placing on the market or use for supply to the general public. So the compounds containing CMRs also should meet the specific limits under (EC) No 1272/2008 and its requirement which regulates label shall mark “professional user application” applies to CMRs or their compounds.
