Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
No short- or long-term toxicity studies on terrestrial arthropods are available.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
SFL is primarily composed of inorganic substances (the major constituent is calcium carbonate, along with silicon dioxide and a small amount of other inorganic salts) and the remainder is composed of organic plant material. SFL is not classified as harmful or toxic to the environment. The inorganic portion of SFL and the organic plant material are composed of substances which are naturally occurring in the environment. Hence, terrestrial organisms are constantly exposed to the components of SFL without suffering from any adverse or detrimental effects.
SFL is also applied to soil as a fertiliser for the purpose of improving the condition of the soil by guaranteeing an adequate supply of calcium to plants.
Given the extensive and continued use of SFL as a constituent of fertiliser and the natural occurrence of its components in the environment, it is considered that SFL would not have a detrimental effect on soil macroorganisms. Therefore, the performance of toxicity tests on terrestrial arthropods is scientifically unjustified.Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
