A phase-in substance is a substance that has been listed in EINECS and/or manufactured in the EC, but never actually been placed on the market during the last 15 years. No-longer polymers are also phase-in substances. A non phase-in substance is a completely new substance that has neither been used nor registered in the market before the entry of force of REACH. Any non phase-in substance must be registered before it can be used in a manufacturing process.
