The tests required for leather exports to the European Union include REACH testing. This is an EU regulation that requires proof that daily products do not contain harmful chemicals to human health. Therefore, all daily products produced in the EU or imported into the EU market, mainly textiles, must pass the registration, inspection, and approval of harmful chemical substance content. Once the specified content is exceeded, they cannot be sold in the EU market.

The REACH test for leather products exported to the European Union has the following requirements:

Firstly, manufacturers and importers need to fulfill corresponding obligations, including requirements for product registration, restrictions, authorization, and notification.

Secondly, REACH regulations require the publication of a list of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) by batch, with more targeted control and restrictions on these substances to ensure product safety.


The REACH testing process for exporting leather products to the European Union includes the following steps:

1. Consultation and application: Firstly, you need to consult a professional testing agency about the requirements and procedures for REACH testing, and fill out the corresponding application form.

2. Product evaluation and quotation: The testing agency evaluates the product based on the product information and requirements you provide, and provides a detailed testing quotation.

3. Sign a contract and prepare samples: After confirming the quotation, you need to sign a contract with the testing agency and prepare samples that meet the testing requirements.

4. Sample testing: After receiving the samples, the testing agency will conduct testing in accordance with the requirements of REACH regulations, including testing for high concern substances such as SVHC.

5. Preparation of report: After the test is completed, the testing agency will prepare a detailed REACH test report based on the test results.

6. Report evaluation and review: The testing agency will submit the report to you for evaluation and review. You need to ensure that all data in the report meets the requirements of the EU REACH regulations.

7. Subsequent services: After completing REACH testing, testing agencies usually provide follow-up consulting services to help you solve potential problems.
