8 THE HANDBOOK FOR THE BRITISH AND IRISH ADHESIVES AND SEALANTS INDUSTRY 2017 The REACH 2018 registration deadline ith the pre-registration deadline of May 2017 speedily approaching, eyes are now turning to the W 2018 registration race against the clock. ECHA’s forecast on the number of new registrations, 70,000, and the registrants’ profile, predominantly Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), for May 2018, prognosticates something of a quake in the structure of the chemicals market. In order to avoid unexpected surprises and inadvertently incur expensive mistakes, it is of crucial importance for companies, independently of their role in the supply chain, not only to determine their obligations under REACH, but also to communicate regularly with their suppliers/customers regarding their intentions for the 2018 deadline.

Who is affected by the deadline? 31 May 2018 is the REACH Registration deadline for ‘phase-in’ substances that are manufactured or imported, on their own or as part of mixtures or articles, into the European Economic Area (EEA) in volumes between 1 and 100 tonnes per year. A substance cannot be placed in the market unless a registration has been submitted to ECHA. However, companies that submitted a pre- registration benefit from transitional arrangements that allows them entering the market before the registration process is complete. Additionally, if a company wants to commercialise a new substance, the substance needs to be fully registered before it is placed in the market, since ‘non phase-in’ line on our posters goes, ‘better together’ – and this means that, substances do not benefit from transitional arrangements. as a relatively small industry sector, the work of the adhesives and Most companies required to register by May 2018 are SMEs, sealants industry is vital to the economy, and we need to work for which REACH registration might impose a considerable together to make sure our voice is heard. economic burden. This is especially the case of niche chemicals We have not only the Brexit challenges ahead, but also some manufacturers, who may find that little or no data is available potentially industry-damaging chemicals legislation on the horizon: for their substances, therefore facing a significant cost increase di-isocyantes threaten the polyurethane industry, BPA’s listing as a because of testing requirements.

Jim Palmer, TSC Chairman and BASA’s Technical Officer

ithout the dedicated and diverse support of our Working Group Chairs and all the active Working Group W participants and their sponsoring employers, none of the achievements in 2016 would have been possible. The BASA technical programmes provide a major added value contribution to our industry and it is vital that all of our members take advantage of it to get the most out of your annual subscriptions. In the past, our technical programmes were focused on input to product standards development through BSI and then CEN and ISO, and representing our industry on the various technical committees is still a considerable part of the work. Our BASA Secretary Lorna Williams has taken on an increased involvement in the CEN and ISO work as part of her own Consultancy work to the industry, supported by myself and other BASA Chairs and Working Group participants, particularly on the Building Adhesives & Construction WG and Sealants WG. However, in recent years we have become increasingly involved with guiding The continuing REACH process also has major effects on our and steering the development of legislation and political policy by industry.

May 2018 is closer than we think Considering that the preparation of a registration dossier takes between 11 and 34 months, depending on information requirements, companies should have assessed their portfolio, determined which substances they wished to register and started the preparation of the dossier by now. The laboratory testing work alone takes typically around nine months for substances manufactured/imported below 10 tonnes per year (Annex VII), and 11 months for substances above the 10 tonnes threshold (Annex VIII). As testing needs to be completed several months before the deadline to ensure that sufficient time is left for the Risk Assessment and Chemical Safety Report, the starting date for testing should be around May 2017 for Annex VII requirements and March 2017 for Annex VIII. Additionally, due to the capacity limit of laboratories, a BASA consultant Tony Bingham, we have developed an ethos for four-month backlog is common, meaning that initial arrangements sustainability supporting the vision: “The adhesive and sealant industry should have been made with a testing laboratory by early 2017. is committed to enabling a growing population to live a better life and to use the planet’s resources more responsibly and efficiently.” We are Potential supply vulnerability also currently investigating the establishment of a packaging recycling Those companies who use a substance, either on its own or scheme to support members’ circular economy efforts. in a mixture, in the course of their industrial or professional The Packaging Adhesives Working Group continues to focus activities, are defined as Downstream Users (DU) within REACH. on concerns regarding food contact materials, an area where new DUs usually manufacture goods where chemicals are not the concerns are identified on a regular basis.

Circular Economy

Yet of late the term ‘circular economy’ is increasingly being promoted. It is no easier for recyclers. Those of you who have ever dealt with seized longer about carbon footprint or dangerous chemicals (still, don’t nuts/bolts will understand that the notion, ‘We can simply unscrew be mislead, as changes in these areas continue to be challenging), it’, can sometimes be anything but the case, but instead time but the world is ever more focused on the circular economy. consuming, thus ‘extracting’ all of the residual value! Our membership of the Construction Products Association We do this not because of commercial reasons (although our has alerted us to comments made about manufacturers hiding Chemical Industries Industry represents about 2% of the total behind generic EPDs (not to be confused with Model EPDs) and the European turnover, a not insignificant figure) and contributes recycling targets being made more difficult because of adhesives more than €13 billion to the EU and employs more than 41,000 and sealants (which apparently stick too well and don’t allow people, but because of the long-term benefits that the use of liquid dismantleability). These are just two of the issues that we have adhesives and sealants brings.

Growth of manufacturer recognised at national design impact awards

ealant and adhesive manufacturer Polyseam has achieved the ultimate design accolade for the rebrand Sof its GRAFT product range. The Yorkshire-headquartered company and its branding agency The Engine Room were both presented with a gold design impact trophy at the glittering DBA Design Effectiveness Awards in London. But the GRAFT project also went on to scoop the ultimate recognition of the evening when it was announced as the Grand Prix winner of winners at the end of the night. Since GRAFT’s launch in 2014, annual sales have increased by a staggering 744% and export levels have risen by more than £1million. In fact, this transformational business exercise has played a significant part in Polyseam now building a 50,000sqm factory which is expected to create a further 50 jobs by 2020. It was this bottom line impact that impressed the line-up of high-profile judges, which included Andy Palmer, CEO of Aston Martin; Josh Berger, president and managing director of Warner Bros; and renowned entrepreneur Deborah Meaden. Commenting on the win, Polyseam’s marketing manager Olando Salina said: “The evolving challenges in the manufacturing market mean we must continually innovate to drive growth. We therefore focused on the development of an environmentally friendly, all-in-one adhesive and sealant created using our own in-house expertise. “This high-performance technology was already award- winning in its own right. But it didn’t achieve the traction we sought, which is why we engaged The Engine Room to help clarify our market position, overhaul the branding of this product range, and craft the communication materials we’d need moving forward. The Engine Room team has specific expertise in this field, and we were therefore delighted when GRAFT was ‘born’. The project success is a testament to the collaboration of these forward-thinking business and design brains.” The Engine Room’s managing director Lesley Gulliver added: “The building, construction and manufacturing sectors are perhaps not renowned for their design prowess. But this project goes to show that strategic creative thinking is about much more than just what looks good. The overhaul of this product range and the development of the GRAFT brand has helped to revolutionise Polyseam’s entire business.” Polyseam has been independently manufacturing first- class brands for the majority of the world’s leading suppliers since 1993. The company manufactures more than 150 different products, and exports to 21 countries globally.
