Enerpac supports the objectives of the EU REACH Regulation. The regulation’s main statement is that “The European Union is aiming to achieve that, by 2018; chemicals are produced and used in ways that lead to the minimization of significant adverse effects on human health and environment.” REACH, the European Union (EU) Regulation for the Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals is designed to achieve this aim.
We are committed to meeting our legal obligations. Wherever we are required to register or pre-register a substance we manufacture or import, we will do so within the stipulated times.
As a manufacturer, importer and purchaser of industrial hydraulic equipment, Enerpac will be impacted by REACH, though marginally. We are in the process of identifying articles within our manufacturing range that might contain substances of interest. Complete compliance with the provisions of REACH will however depend on close cooperation between Enerpac, our primary vendors, and vendors at different tiers.
Enerpac has already reviewed the impact of REACH on our business and has initiated steps for delivering compliance. We have started discussions with our supply chain partners to better understand the overall impact and their intentions under REACH. This includes working with suppliers to ensure continued supply of raw materials suitable for customers’ uses.

It is not expected that significant substance withdrawal will take place by our suppliers, but in the event that materials are withdrawn from the market we will keep our customers informed and work towards making the appropriate substitutions.
