ADDING TO THE GENERAL IMPORT PURCHASE N°7

REGULATION REACH

The European Regulation REACH n°1907/2006 of December 18, 2006, regarding the management of the chemical substances which aim to ensure a high level of security for human health and environment, came into force on June 1st, 2007.

The levels of obligations regarding communication are different between the actors of the supply chain and

particularly for Printemps towards its final consignee of the product bought in its stores.

The REACH regulation imposes to the manufacturers and European importers the obligation to register the

substances the way they are, or contained in preparation they import or manufacture in quantity superior to 1

tonne per year (per importer/manufacturer).

It imposes also, under some conditions, to manufacturers and European importers of articles, an obligation of

registration of the substances contained in these articles which will be rejected in normal conditions of use or

reasonably foreseeable conditions of use.

The company PRINTEMPS is recalling you its obligation of communication regarding articles towards its

customer.

In the REACH regulation, an article is an item for which the shape and the surface are more determining for its

function than its chemical composition. A t-shirt, shoes, candles, plates, a raclette appliance, a leather sofa,

packaging (printed box, blister pack, paper bags …) the conditioning for preparations (such as the bottles of

perfume, bottles of shampoo) are articles.

The article 33 of REACH regulation, in force , established, from the publication of the list of the « substances

candidates to authorization” by the European Agency of Chemical Products, each distributor of an article that

contains one of these substances with a concentration superior to 0,1% of its weight, will have the obligation to give, to consumer who asks for, the sufficient information they have to allow him to use the article in security and with at least the name of the substance(s), within 45 days,

We invite you to think about working with laboratories or technical centres who have the experience of

managing these type of substances of very high concern that can be found classified by category of material

composing articles : plastics, metals , the colours and the finish for textile , and on the possibility to replace

these substances by substances called substitution substances (which are not in the list of the substances

candidate to authorization).

Notification procedure: The notification procedures, of authorization and restrictions for substances of highest concern towards their effects on human health and environment will only begin on June 1st, 2011.

If you are just user of an article and you don’t manufacture them, it will be necessary to go backwards on the level suppliers/manufacturers in the supply chain. Make sure with your suppliers/manufacturers and/or subcontractors they understand the obligations of the regulation linked to the articles with REACH, so that they will be able to answer your request in the time limit, and eventually think about substitutions for substances of very high concern and have a look at the update of the list of the substances candidate to authorization on the ECHA site : http://echa.europa.eu/

In case of no respect of these commitments from your company, you will have certain responsibilities regarding the consequences notably financial, which can occur to our company as a result of such violation of the rule Waiting for your attestation; we remain.

child care – PFOS, articles anti stain treated) concerning the restriction on placing on market and the use of certain

substances and dangerous preparations, will be integrated in the au REACH regulation (Annex XVII) June 1st,
