What this means for studios

When a substance enters the SVHC Candidate List, suppliers of articles containing that substance above 0.1% w/w must notify downstream users. Studios using affected materials (pigments, jewelry alloys, polymers, aftercare) should ask their supplier for a written confirmation that the batch in current use does not contain the newly listed SVHC above the threshold — or, if it does, request a substitute. The ECHA detail link for each entry above is the authoritative reference.
