We are current users of a product Bonderite M-CR 1200 for treatments, and use under 1T per year. 

The individual make up for this substance Chromium Trioxide are noted on the Annex 

Do we as users need to apply for authorisation to continue using?

Many Thanks!

Chromium Trioxide has long been known to be a carcinogen - long before REACH we had the Chromium Plating Regulations - so the quantity threshold is academic.

CAS 1333-82-0 is subject to entry 16 on the Authorisations Annex (EU & UK) whilst acids derived from the substance are subject to entry 17 on the same Authorisations Annex.

Your supplier should have an authorisation number in order to place the product to the UK market.

Looking for an SDS on-line the only one I could locate is a US HazCom 2012 format.
