What is a EU SCIP chemicals QR code?

A SCIP QR code identifies an article containing a substance of concern, so anyone in the supply chain, or a waste handler at end of life, can look up what's inside.

Who issues it

The company placing the article on the EU market registers it with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) and assigns the identifier.

The standard behind it

SCIP (Substances of Concern In articles) is required under the EU Waste Framework Directive, feeding a public ECHA database used mainly by waste treatment operators.

Why you can't generate this here

The identifier is minted and assigned by an issuing authority or registry (a tax authority, health ministry, or goods-serialization registry). It can be checked, not manufactured by a third-party tool.

You can still scan and verify one with our free QR checker.

Frequently asked

Can I make a EU SCIP chemicals QR code with a generator?
No. The identifier only means something once ECHA has a matching registration for that article and its supplier.

Can I check whether one I received is genuine?
Yes. ECHA's SCIP database is public and searchable. check.qr.abundera.ai will show you the raw identifier.
