Summary

Machine-generated summary

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) in Finland expects to publish a call for tenders in late June or early July 2026 for research and development services and related consultancy on nanomaterial risk assessment. The project will refine and validate threshold values from a previous 2023 contract on acceptable variation in nanoform characterisers under REACH Annex VI, using additional data sets covering a wider range of chemical types. Results will support new ECHA guidance for registrants of nanoforms. Offers must be submitted by September 2026. No estimated contract value is stated in the notice.

Description

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) expects to launch a call for tenders late June/early July 2026, with a deadline to submit offer in September 2026, for the project “Nanomaterial Risk Assessment: Refining and Validating Acceptable Variation in Nanoform Characterisers” The project is meant to follow up to on previous project “Nanomaterial Risk Assessment: A regulatory way forward for sameness and grouping approaches”1 contracted in 2023. In the previous contract, a framework was developed to assess the acceptable variation within each characteriser of a Nanoform (as per Section 2.4 of Annex VI of REACH Regulation). The project aimed at exploring ways to simplify nanoforms registration process and, ultimately, its’ associated testing burden. As an outcome, a series of binary decision trees and respective variability threshold were produced, covering each mandatory characteriser. The framework was developed based on a limited set of information covering metallic and carbon-based nanomaterials. The final report as well as the Decision Tree can be found here: https://echa.europa.eu/fi/science/publications-and-reports/reports, so that interested parties can already familiarize themselves with the outcome of the project. The new contract aims at refining the threshold values pre-established and validating it with additional data sets, covering a wider range of chemical types. The project outcome is expected to become a basis for ECHA to develop new guidance for registrants of nanoforms of a substance.
