국제환경규제 유해물질의 최근 동향 및 국내 수출기업에 미치는 영향
EU Environmental Prohibition on Hazardous Substances and Its Impacts on International Trades of Korea Companies
E-mail:
초록
2000년 중반기 이후, 산업 경쟁력에서 환경 규제, 특히 제품 함유 유해물질 규제가 EU를 중심으로 점차 강화되어 큰 영향을 미쳐왔고, 이는 1990년 초 섬유산업에서 시작하여 전기전자산업을 거쳐 전 산업으로 확장되고 있다. 본 총설에서는 EU의 제품 함유 유해물질 규제 흐름을 알아보고, EU에서 규제하고 있는 유해물질의 종류, 규제 사유, 관련 근거 및 법령을 주요 섬유제품 에코라벨인 Oeko-Tex Standard, 전기전자 제품의 RoHS (Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment) 및 REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of CHemicals)의 SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern, 고위험성 물질)를 중심으로 고찰해 보면서 NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) 단체들의 활동으로 도출되고 있는 ChemSec (the International Chemical Secretariat)의 SIN (Substitute It Now) list와 그 의미를 조사해보았다. 또한, 국내 수출기업이 국제시장에서 받고 있는 클레임 사례를 통해 규제 유해물질이 시장에 주는 영향을 살펴보고, 유해물
질로 인한 국제환경규제의 단기 및 중장기 대응 방안을 고찰해 보기로 한다.
Starting with textile products in the middle of 1990, environmental requirements on prohibition of hazardous substances in products have been led by EU member countries and expanded to electrical and electronic equipment with implementaion of RoHS (Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment) in 2006. Under EU REACH (Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of CHemicals), the concept of SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) and resulting regulatory duties regarding it have been introduced to the supply chain of almost all industry sectors. In this technical review, kinds of hazardous substances, reasons for restrictions and related directives and regulations are reviewed with its
influence on the international market. Suggestions are made how to cope with environmental regulations as well as mid-to-long term market strategy to secure global market competitiveness.
