第72条关于致癌、致突变和生殖毒性特定物质的限制是否适用于主要由塑料或合成皮革制成的服装或相关配饰，例如雨衣、配饰或鞋类？

Does the restriction in entry 72 on specific substances which are carcinogenic, mutagenic and toxic to reproduction apply to clothing or related accessories such as rainwear, accessories or footwear mainly made of plastic material or synthetic leather?

是的。欧盟委员会已发布关于 REACH 附件 XVII 第 72 条限制的解释指南，旨在阐明拟受该限制涵盖的物品范围。该指南提供了一份非详尽的清单，列出了哪些物品被视为在限制范围内，哪些不在限制范围内。物品的原材料并非应用限制的决定性因素，而是物品的性质，例如，它是服装、相关配饰，还是在正常或合理可预见的使用条件下与人体皮肤接触程度与服装或鞋类相似的非服装纺织品。解释指南中明确提到雨衣是受该限制涵盖的物品示例。根据该条目第 3 段，该限制不适用于仅由天然皮革、毛皮或生皮制成的服装、相关配饰、鞋类，或服装、相关配饰或鞋类的部件。它也不适用于非纺织紧固件和非纺织装饰附件。

Yes. The European Commission has published an explanatory guide concerning the restriction under Entry 72 of Annex XVII to REACH aiming to clarify the scope of the articles intended to be covered by the restriction. It provides a non-exhaustive list of articles which are considered to be within the scope of the restriction and those that are not. The raw material of articles is not a determining factor for the application of the restriction, but rather the nature of the article in question, i.e. is it clothing, a related accessory, a textile other than clothing which under normal or reasonably foreseeable conditions of use comes into contact with human skin to an extent similar to clothing or footwear. Raincoats are explicitly mentioned as an example of articles covered by the restriction in the explanatory guide. According to paragraph 3 of the entry, the restriction does not apply to clothing, related accessories, footwear, or parts of clothing, related accessories or footwear, made exclusively of natural leather, fur or hide. It does not apply either to non-textile fasteners and non-textile decorative attachments.
