Pre-registered Substances

The first major deadline laid down in the REACH regulation was December 1, 2008, and the possibility to pre-register is now over. Borealis has pre-registered the following substances.

Polyolefin monomers

There is no obligation to pre-register or register polymers according to REACH. Instead, monomer constituents of polymers need to be registered. As described below, Borealis has pre-registered the monomer substances ethylene and propylene of our polyolefin products.

Monomers CAS / EC Number Date of preregistration
Ethylene 74-85-1 / 200-815-3 15.08.2008
Propylene 115-07-1 / 204-062-1 21.08.2008

For all of our European production, we confirm that Borealis is purchasing only from suppliers that have confirmed their REACH compliance.
