The Candidate List is ECHA's register of Substances of Very High Concern under REACH. If your article contains a listed substance above 0.1% by weight, it can trigger supply-chain communication (Article 33), ECHA notification, and a SCIP submission.
This is the complete Candidate List, current through ECHA's latest update, compiled and maintained by the Pareo team. ECHA updates it about twice a year, so always confirm against the official ECHA list (source link in the table) before relying on it. See data sources & licensing.

Full REACH Candidate List of SVHCs, current through ECHA's 36th update (Feb 2026), compiled from sources that reproduce the official ECHA Candidate List, with cross-checked CAS numbers. Pareo maintains this list by hand. ECHA updates the official list about twice a year, so check it there before you rely on this. Reasons are simplified. Group and UVCB entries without a single CAS show a dash.
Authorities publish this as long tables and PDFs. Here you can search by name or CAS number and filter by reason in one place. That is the start of making compliance data genuinely usable rather than just available.
Reading the "reason" column
- CMR: carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction.
- PBT / vPvB: persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (or very persistent and very bioaccumulative).
- Endocrine: endocrine-disrupting properties.
See SVHC for the full definition and obligations.
