bulgaria requires a batch of china children’s slipper to be withdrawn from the market for containing 285 mg/kg dmf.
in the light of reach annex xvii entry 61 “dimethylfumarate”, articles or any parts containing dmf in a concentration greater than 0.1 mg/kg shall not be placed on the market. comparing to the limit under reach, we can find that the content of dmf in the slipper is far greater than the regulative limit.
