47% OF CHEAP ELECTRONICS BREAK THE LAW

Nearly half of the home electronics on the Swedish market contain such large
amounts of hazardous substances that they are not allowed to be sold within the
EU. This is primarily because many companies are unaware of the legal
requirements that apply. This is according to a report from the Swedish
Chemicals Agency.


THE NEW ECODESIGN REGULATION CAME INTO EFFECT ON JULY 18TH. DO YOU KNOW WHAT
THIS MEANS FOR YOUR COMPANY?

On 18 July 2024, the EU’s new Ecodesign Regulation came into effect, marking a
significant shift towards more sustainable products in the European market. This
regulation gradually replaces the previous directives from 2009 and introduces
stricter environmental requirements for a broader range of products.


KEY CHANGES

 * Expanded Coverage: The new regulation now covers almost all products sold
   within the EU, with a few exceptions such as food, pharmaceuticals, and
   veterinary products. Previously, the focus was solely on energy-related
   products.
 * Digital Product Passport: Every product will now require a digital product
   passport, containing information on raw materials, manufacturing processes,
   and environmental impact, making it easier for consumers to make
   environmentally conscious choices.
 * Emphasis on Durability and Recyclability: Greater emphasis is placed on the
   durability, repairability, and recyclability of products to extend their
   lifecycle and reduce waste.
 * Stricter Rules on Obsolescence and Disposal: New, stricter rules address
   product obsolescence and the disposal of unsold goods, including restrictions
   on how these can be managed.


TIMELINE

The first work plan for the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR)
for several prioritised product groups is expected to be completed by April
2025. Deadlines and transition periods for ecodesign measures will be specified
in delegated acts, with the first expected around 2026 for certain textiles and
steel. With an 18-month transition period, the requirements are anticipated to
take effect around 2027/2028.


WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR COMPANIES?

If your company markets products within the EU, it’s crucial to begin assessing
the impact of the ESPR and stay informed about its implementation. This is
particularly important for companies dealing with prioritised products like
textiles and steel.

It’s also advisable to familiarise yourself with the new definition of hazardous
substances. For the first time, a definition of “substances of concern” is
introduced, which has a broader scope than the previous SVHC (Substances of Very
High Concern) criteria. This category includes substances that cause chronic
aquatic toxicity, are harmful to the ozone layer, cause specific organ toxicity,
or negatively affect the reuse and recycling of materials.


ACTIONS FOR COMPANIES

 * Sustainable Product Design: Companies need to prioritise designing products
   that are more durable, repairable, and recyclable. This involves rethinking
   material choices, manufacturing processes, and the entire product lifecycle.
 * Increased Transparency and Compliance: Companies must enhance transparency by
   clearly labelling products and providing detailed information on their
   environmental impact. Adhering to the new regulations will require better
   oversight of product compliance.
 * Collaboration Across the Supply Chain: Companies should collaborate across
   the entire supply chain to ensure products meet sustainability requirements
   and develop sustainable solutions in partnership with industry peers.

By taking these steps, your company can lead in sustainability and ensure it is
prepared for the new demands imposed by the EU’s Ecodesign Regulation

THE EU’S NEW CLIMATE REQUIREMENTS FOR IMPORTS (CBAM)


 SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES FOR COMPANIES THAT FAIL TO ACT. IS YOUR COMPANY READY?

The EU’s new Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is a key part of the
Union’s strategy to reduce carbon emissions and ensure fair competition between
domestic and imported goods. These requirements apply to all importers of
CBAM-regulated goods, whether they are businesses or individuals. This includes
all imports into the EU, even goods ordered online.

CBAM affects all businesses importing the following goods:

 * Iron and steel products, and goods made from these materials, such as pipe
   fittings, profiles, and screws
 * Aluminum and aluminum products
 * Fertilizers (with some exceptions)
 * Cement products (with some exceptions)
 * Chemicals (currently limited to hydrogen)
 * Electrical energy

There are ongoing discussions about including additional product categories,
such as plastics. Certain exceptions exist, such as goods with KN numbers not
listed in the CBAM regulation and imports valued under 150 EUR.

But what does this mean for your business, and how can you ensure compliance?

The Transition Period: Preparing for the Future

The EU introduced CBAM in May 2023, with the aim of applying an additional
carbon fee on imported goods that have not already paid for their emissions
during production. During the ongoing transition period, from 2024 to 2025, the
EU is collecting emissions data from importers to determine the final tariffs to
be implemented in 2026.

Starting in early 2024, Swedish companies importing CBAM goods were required to
report climate data for imports made in the last quarter of 2023. This
requirement was enforced even if detailed information was not available, as
default values could be used. However, the rules have become stricter as of July
this year.

Stricter Rules from Summer 2024

Since summer, importers are now required to report actual emissions figures for
all imports made during the third quarter of 2024. The deadline for submitting
this report is October 31st. It’s important to note that direct customs agents
cannot handle the reporting under CBAM regulations, even if they usually manage
all the administrative work related to customs declarations.

To avoid issues, it is crucial to ensure that you have access to the necessary
climate data from your supplier or manufacturer before making any purchases or
imports, in compliance with CBAM regulations. If a non-EU manufacturer refuses
to share their emissions data, the importer must demonstrate that they have made
every effort to obtain this information. This is a clear indication that the EU
is striving for greater transparency and accountability.

What Does This Mean for the Future?

By 2026, all importers of CBAM goods must apply for import authorization. This
permit is essential to continue importing goods into the EU. Without
authorization, imported goods may be stopped at the border, and companies could
face significant costs, whether the goods are stored, destroyed, or returned.

The National Authorities responsible for granting import authorizations, will
conduct a thorough review of the company’s financial standing and compliance
with CBAM regulations. Companies that violate EU rules or have been involved in
economic crimes will be excluded, further emphasizing the importance of
compliance.

How Chemity Can Assist

At Chemity, we are working to integrate CBAM management into our system,
offering companies an efficient and user-friendly solution to ensure compliance
with the new requirements before making purchases. Our solution will make it
easy for you to identify which of your products will be subject to CBAM
regulations and to collect the necessary climate data from your suppliers. The
system will provide you with a real-time overview of compliance for your
products and facilitate the reporting of relevant information to the CBAM-portal
through a seamless system-to-system solution. This will minimize the risk of
issues at customs and enhance your competitiveness in the market.

Summary

CBAM introduces new challenges for businesses importing goods into the EU, but
with the right preparations, these challenges can be managed. A crucial step is
to ensure that you obtain all the necessary information from your supplier or
manufacturer in accordance with CBAM regulations before purchasing and importing
goods. By staying updated with the regulations and using tools like Chemity’s
upcoming CBAM management solution, companies can ensure they meet the EU’s
requirements and continue to compete in the European market.
