The European Union’s REACH Regulation (EC 1907/2006) has long set the benchmark for chemicals legislation worldwide. Since entering into force in 2007, REACH has reshaped how industries produce, import, and use chemical substances. Its philosophy is straightforward but demanding: “no data, no market.” Companies must generate safety data and register any substance manufactured or imported in quantities of one ton or more per year. While waste itself is exempt, once a waste-derived product—such as pyrolysis oil, recovered carbon black (rCB), or syngas—achieves end-of-waste status, it is treated as a chemical substance and falls within REACH obligations.
