Substance Regulations

AD-DSL Declarable Substances for Aerospace & Defence

Check every part on your aerospace and defence BOM against the AD-DSL and see which components carry a declarable substance, which are clear, and which still need a declaration collected.

One declarable-substance list for the aerospace and defence supply chain

The AD-DSL harmonises substances drawn from REACH, RoHS, the Montreal Protocol, the Stockholm Convention on POPs, and other regulations into a single list the aerospace and defence chain declares against. Compliance Manager assesses your whole BOM against it, so here is what you get.

How Z2 helps

/1

Out-of-the-box coverage

Most of your BOM assessed against the AD-DSL from the first upload.

/2

Declaration status

Each part flagged for declarable AD-DSL substances, with restriction dates noted.

/3

Item rollup

Declarable content shown at every level of the product hierarchy.

/4

Compliance evidence package

FMDs, CoCs, and supplier declarations behind every AD-DSL assessment.

/5

Supplier outreach

Z2-led campaigns collect the declarations you're missing.

/6

Monitoring and alerts

Notified when an AD-DSL revision affects a part you use.

BOM assessment

Assess Your Aerospace BOM Against the AD-DSL

Upload your bill of materials and see every part checked against the AD-DSL declarable-substance list in one pass.

  • Each component returned Affected, Not Affected, or Noncompliant.
  • Broad coverage from the first upload, drawn from Z2's FMD and CoC database.
  • The AD-DSL assessed alongside REACH and RoHS on the same BOM, with no separate workflow.

Verified data

Statuses Backed by Material Declarations and Certificates

Each AD-DSL status is drawn from Z2's declaration and certificate database and the documentation behind it.

  • Every status supported by downloadable manufacturer documentation.
  • The driving regulation recorded for each declarable substance found.
  • Substances tested against AD-DSL declaration thresholds, not assumed present.
  • Supplier outreach collects the declarations still missing from your BOM.

Live monitoring

Track AD-DSL Revisions as They Land

The AD-DSL grows as its source regulations change. Get notified when a revision touches a part on your BOM.

  • Alerts when a new AD-DSL entry affects a part you already use.
  • Time to collect a declaration or qualify an alternative before a prime contractor asks.
  • Flagged parts evaluated against REACH and RoHS at the same time.

One platform

Part of Z2 Compliance Manager

The AD-DSL is one of more than 270 global regulations Compliance Manager assesses on the same BOM.

  • REACH, RoHS, POPs, and TSCA consolidated on one part record.
  • Item rollup shows declarable content at every level of the product hierarchy.
  • A branded declaration generated once a product is fully assessed.

Câu hỏi thường gặp

Which substances does Z2 assess parts against for the AD-DSL?

Compliance Manager assesses each part against the AD-DSL, the harmonised declarable-substance list maintained by the IAEG, covering substances such as hexavalent chromium, cadmium, lead, and ozone-depleting agents. It flags any part carrying a listed substance above its declaration threshold and records the regulation driving each entry.

Where do the AD-DSL statuses come from?

Statuses are drawn from Z2's database of material declarations and certificates of compliance, backed by downloadable manufacturer documentation. That evidence travels with each assessment, so you can show the basis for every Affected, Not Affected, or Noncompliant result.

What does an Affected status mean for an AD-DSL substance?

An Affected part contains a substance on the AD-DSL above its threshold, which means the substance has to be declared, not that the part is out of compliance. Compliance Manager separates a part that simply needs a declaration from one that is Noncompliant because its substance is also restricted or prohibited under the driving regulation.

How does the AD-DSL fit with the rest of my compliance program in Z2?

The AD-DSL is one of more than 270 regulations Compliance Manager assesses. The same BOM is evaluated against REACH, RoHS, POPs, and your other frameworks in one platform, so a substance driven by several regulations is consolidated on one part record, with item rollup showing status at every level of the product hierarchy.

Declare every AD-DSL substance across your whole BOM.
