Introduction
In the European Union, according to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (REACH), Annex XVII, Entry 50,
articles such as clothing, footwear and gloves are not to be placed on the market for supply to the
general public if any of their rubber or plastic components that come into direct, as well as prolonged or
short-term repetitive, contact with the human skin or the oral cavity, under normal or reasonably
foreseeable conditions of use, contain more than 1 mg/kg (0,000 1 % by weight of this component) of
any of the following PAHs.
Toys and childcare articles, are not to be placed on the market if any of their rubber or plastic
components that come into direct as well as prolonged or short-term repetitive contact with the human
skin or the oral cavity, under normal or reasonably foreseeable conditions of use, contain more than
0,5 mg/kg (0,000 05 % by weight of this component) of any of the following PAHs.
Further information can be found in the ECHA guideline [3].
According to Regulation (EU) 2018/1513 amending Annex XVII to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006
(REACH) by Entry 72, (a) clothing or related accessories; (b) textiles other than clothing which, under
normal or reasonably foreseeable conditions of use, come into contact with human skin to an extent
similar to clothing; (c) footwear are not to be placed on the market after 1 November 2020, if they
contain more than 1 mg/kg (0,000 1 % by weight of this component) of any of the following PAHs.
This restriction does not apply to: (a) clothing, related accessories or footwear, or parts of clothing,
related accessories or footwear, made exclusively of natural leather, fur or hide; (b) non-textile
fasteners and non-textile decorative attachments; (c) second-hand clothing, related accessories, textiles
other than clothing or footwear; (d) wall-to-wall carpets and textile floor coverings for indoor use, rugs
and runners. It also does not apply to clothing, related accessories, textiles other than clothing, or
footwear within the scope of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 or Regulation (EU) 2017/745. The restriction
on textiles other than clothing does not apply to disposable textiles. "Disposable textiles" means textiles
that are designed to be used only once or for a limited time and are not intended for subsequent use for
the same or a similar purpose.
Regulated PAHs: Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), Benzo[e]pyrene (BeP), Benzo[a]anthracene (BaA), Chrysen
(CHR), Benzo[b]fluoranthene (BbFA), Benzo[j]fluoranthene (BjFA), (g) Benzo[k]fluoranthene (BkFA),
Dibenzo[a,h]anthracene (DBAhA).
The PAH Benzo(g,h,i)perylene was added to the REACH Candidate List of SVHC on 27 June 2018.
In addition, the following PAHs are under consideration for addition to the REACH Regulation.
Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, Benzo(j,k)fluorene (fluoranthrene), Napthalene, Anthracene, Pyrene,

1 Scope
This document specifies a method to determine the amounts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAH) in components of textile products. This method has been elaborated to achieve a limit of
quantification of 0,1 mg/kg.
NOTE A list of relevant materials can be found in CEN/TR 16741 [2].
