On March 25, 2025, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) officially published an updated version of the Community Rolling Action Plan (CoRAP) for 2025-2027. The plan aims to systematically evaluate 28 chemical substances that may pose risks to human health or the environment under Articles 44–48 of the EU REACH Regulation ((EC) No 1907/2006). The evaluations will be led by competent authorities of 8 Member States and span 2025 to 2027.
Highlights of the Plan
1. New and Extended Evaluations
- 13 new substances have been added to the evaluation list for the first time, focusing on their potential risks.
- 18 substances are carried over from the CoRAP 2024-2026 Update published in March 2024, with 12 substances postponed to post-2025 due to pending supplementary data submissions (dossier evaluation requests) from companies.
2. Evaluation Timeline
- 2025: 8 substances (including 2 grouped analogues) begin evaluation.
- 2026: 15 substances enter the evaluation process.
- 2027: 5 substances start evaluation.
Note: The lists for 2026 and 2027 may be adjusted in future CoRAP updates.
3. 3 Substances Withdrawn
- The first substance was withdrawn as existing data sufficiently addressed initial concerns.
- For the second substance, additional requirements were raised through dossier evaluation. If unresolved, it may be relisted in CoRAP.
- The third substance (Reaction mass of: triphenylthiophosphate and tertiary butylated phenyl derivatives) has been formally classified as a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) and will undergo stricter regulatory controls.
