Woodward is aware of the REACH rules which are designed to ensure a high level of
protection of human health and the environment as well as the free movement of
substances in the European Community. REACH has special rules for substances in
articles. Our products would be classified as articles under REACH because their shape,
surface and design determine its function to a greater degree than their chemical
composition. As articles, our products are not subject to the REACH registration requirements because:
- Our products do not contain substances that are intended to be released during the normal
or reasonably foreseeable conditions of use of the product. Most of our products are mechanical
devices that are used to control the fuel flow or energy of engines, turbines, etc.; and
- Our products do not contain substances of very high concern above 0.1% weight by weight (w/w)
of the article.
Therefore, Woodward has no plans to pre-register or register any substances in our
products under REACH as we have determined that our products are not subject to the
registration requirements of REACH.
Any customer questions regarding this issue should be addressed to the customer's Woodward
account manager or representative.
