HEDSL and heavy equipment chemical regulatory compliance
01 — The Foundation

What is HEDSL?

HEDSL (Heavy Equipment Declarable Substance List) is a list of chemicals relevant to the heavy equipment and machinery industry that need to be reported if found in supplies and parts.

Created by major heavy equipment manufacturers to unify substance declaration standards throughout their supply chains — conceptually like GADSL for the car industry — HEDSL promotes compliance with national waste directives, REACH, RoHS and other international environmental requirements, while enabling better management of hazardous substances and easier end-of-life recycling.

Companies supplying this industry are required to track and declare chemicals under HEDSL — Global PCCS keeps your declarations accurate and current.
