Substance Regulations
Check every part on your BOM against the persistent organic pollutants restricted by the Stockholm Convention and EU Regulation 2019/1021, and see which components clear, which sit over a substance's trace limit, and which fall out of compliance.
Persistent organic pollutants such as PFOS, the PBDEs, and short-chain chlorinated paraffins are restricted worldwide by the Stockholm Convention and the EU POPs Regulation 2019/1021. Compliance Manager assesses your whole BOM against the list, so here is what you get.
How Z2 helps
Most of your BOM assessed against the Stockholm Convention and EU POPs lists on day one.
Each part returned Affected, Not Affected, or Noncompliant.
Compliance status at every level of the product hierarchy.
CoCs, FMDs, and supplier documentation behind every assessment.
Z2-led campaigns collect the FMDs and CoCs you're missing.
Notified when a newly listed POP puts a part over the trace limit.
See how Z2 assesses your BOM for POPs.
See a demoBOM assessment
Upload your BOM and see every part checked against the Stockholm Convention and EU POPs lists at once.
Verified data
Statuses come from Z2's declaration and certificate database, the most comprehensive on the market.
Live monitoring
The page re-assesses against the current list as the Stockholm Convention adds substances.
One platform
POPs is one of more than 270 global regulations Compliance Manager assesses on the same BOM.
In practice
Your BOM is assessed against the Stockholm Convention and EU POPs lists on upload, no wait.
One part carries its POPs, REACH, RoHS, and PFAS status together on a single part record.
Full material disclosure tests each part against the substance's own trace limit instead of a guess.
Downloadable FMDs and certificates sit behind every status, ready when an auditor asks.
Status rolls up from each part to the finished product, so you release with the full picture.
Alerts flag a newly listed POP early, before it puts a part over the limit or holds a shipment.
Substances
A working subset of the listed POPs, with where each commonly appears. Annex letters follow the Stockholm Convention; the EU may apply tighter limits.
Metal plating, photolithography, and semiconductor processing
Fluoropolymer processing, wire and cable insulation
Flame retardants in plastics, boards, and enclosures
Flame retardant in expanded polystyrene and textiles
Plasticizers and flame retardants in PVC and rubber
Flame retardant in wire coatings and connectors
UV stabilizer in plastics and protective coatings
Part of
automated material compliance across 270+ regulations, so RoHS, REACH, PFAS, conflict minerals, and more stay audit-ready.
Common Questions
Upload your BOM and Compliance Manager assesses every part against the Stockholm Convention and EU Regulation 2019/1021 POPs lists in one pass, classifying each as Affected, Not Affected, or Noncompliant. Coverage comes from Z2's database of full material declarations and certificates of compliance, so most of your BOM returns a status on day one.
Compliance Manager tests each part against the applicable per-substance limit set in Annex I of the EU POPs Regulation, using full material disclosure resolved to the part-per-million level rather than an assumption. Where a trace contaminant sits over the limit, the part is flagged with the supporting data behind it.
Statuses are drawn from Z2's database of manufacturer declarations and certificates of compliance, with downloadable documentation attached to each assessment. That evidence travels with the part, so you can show the basis for every Affected, Not Affected, or Noncompliant designation.
Compliance Manager re-assesses your BOM against the current list as the Stockholm Convention adds substances, and alerts you the moment a newly listed POP puts a part over the trace limit, giving you time to qualify an alternative before a shipment is stopped.
Yes. Both are managed by ECHA and share protocols for additions and enforcement, so the two lists are best assessed together. The same BOM carries a part's POPs, REACH, RoHS, and PFAS status on one record, evaluated in a single pass.
POPs is one of more than 270 regulations Compliance Manager assesses on the same BOM, evaluated alongside REACH, RoHS, TSCA, and your other frameworks in one platform, with item rollup showing status at every level of the product hierarchy.
