GADSL, RoHS, and REACH
If you build, buy, or certify automotive parts, the Global Automotive Declarable Substance List (GADSL) is the foundation of chemical transparency across the supply chain. It tells you which substances must be declared (D) and which are prohibited (P) in vehicle components at the time of sale. GADSL is also the bridge to broader chemical regimes such as RoHS, REACH, ELV, and emerging reporting frameworks. This guide shows you—step by step—how to make GADSL work in real life: how to collect supplier data, how to use IMDS effectively, how to manage engineering changes, how to design safer parts, and how to use compliance as a competitive advantage.
