Understanding REACH: The EU's Comprehensive Chemical RegulationREACH stands for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals, a pivotal regulation enacted by the European Union to safeguard human health and the environment from the risks posed by chemical substances. Officially implemented on June 1, 2007, REACH represents one of the most ambitious and stringent chemical management frameworks globally. It shifts the burden of proof onto manufacturers, importers, and downstream users to demonstrate that chemicals are safe for their intended uses. Under REACH, companies must register substances produced or imported in quantities exceeding one ton per year, providing detailed data on their properties, hazards, and safe handling. The evaluation process involves authorities assessing this information to identify potential risks, while authorization is required for substances of very high concern (SVHCs), such as those that are carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic to reproduction. Restrictions can ban or limit the use of certain chemicals altogether. This regulation not only promotes innovation in safer alternatives but also ensures transparency across supply chains, fostering a more sustainable chemical industry in Europe and beyond.
WJM's Commitment to Quality in Solid Silicone Production of POS Silicone CaseAt WJM, our dedicated quality team upholds the highest standards in every aspect of solid silicone manufacturing, ensuring that
Custom Silicone Products(mainly
POS Protective Case In-Stock) meet and exceed international safety and performance benchmarks. From the initial selection of raw silicone materials—sourced from trusted suppliers with verified purity—to the precise formulation of masterbatches that enhance color, durability, and functionality, we implement rigorous testing protocols. During the silicone mixing phase, advanced equipment and real-time monitoring prevent inconsistencies, while the molding process employs state-of-the-art injection techniques to achieve flawless shapes and textures. Post-molding, our edge removal procedures utilize precision tools to eliminate any imperfections, guaranteeing a smooth, professional finish. Finally, in product packaging, we prioritize protective measures to maintain integrity during transit, all while adhering to eco-friendly practices. This end-to-end quality assurance not only minimizes defects but also prioritizes user safety, environmental compliance, and long-term reliability, reflecting WJM's unwavering dedication to excellence in silicone solutions.
Recent Updates: Enhanced REACH Certification for POS Silicone CasesOn December 16, 2025, WJM's quality department proudly announced an update to our REACH-certified POS Silicone Case products, reinforcing our alignment with the latest EU regulatory requirements. This refresh involved comprehensive re-evaluations of materials and processes to incorporate any new SVHC listings or restriction amendments under REACH. Our POS Silicone Cases, designed for durable protection in point-of-sale applications like retail displays or device enclosures, now feature enhanced formulations that further reduce potential chemical risks without compromising on flexibility, shock resistance, or aesthetic appeal. This certification update underscores WJM's proactive approach to compliance, ensuring that our global customers can confidently integrate these products into their operations, knowing they adhere to the strictest safety standards. By staying ahead of regulatory evolves, WJM continues to build trust and drive innovation in the silicone industry.
