To learn about

Learn about the ECHA Waste Framework Directive and the SCIP database

Waste Framework Directive can be translated as Waste Framework Directive. The Waste Framework Directive (2009/98/EC) of November 2008 establishes the legal framework for the generation, handling and management of waste for the environment and human health. Its main objective is to ensure harmonized, safe and secure management of waste from industrial operations. It also aims to promote the efficient use of resources essential for the transition to a circular economy.

SCIP stands for "Substances of Concern In Articles as such or in complex objects (products)," which roughly translates to "substances of concern in articles as such or complexly contained in products. The SCIP database was developed by ECHA to manage information on such articles containing substances of very high concern (SVHC). It collects all the information collected with the aim of improving transparency on hazardous substances in articles for the end user, authorities and waste operators.

ECHA's candidate list describes and collects substances that may have serious effects on human health or the environment. These substances are also known as substances of very high concern (SVHC). Once a substance is on the candidate list, suppliers of articles containing these substances (SVHC) at a concentration greater than 0.1% w/w (weight by weight) are required to share this information in the supply chain and with consumers to ensure safe use of the article.

All companies that manufacture, import or supply articles for the EU market must submit information about these articles to the SCIP database if the articles contain the substances on the ECHA candidate list in concentrations greater than 0.1% w/w.

This means that information must be submitted on articles that:

  • are manufactured or assembled in the EU; or
  • are imported from non-EU countries; or
  • are to be distributed in the EU.

Excluded from this:

  • Substances and mixtures that are not part of complex objects.
  • Retailers and other supply chain providers who supply items directly and exclusively to consumers
