ID 22946 | 15.11.2024 / Attached - Version 1.0 First Edition November 2024

Guidance to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging (CLP) of substances and mixtures.

This guidance is a comprehensive technical and scientific document series on the application of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on the classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP). The objective of this document series is to provide detailed guidance on the application of the CLP criteria for physical, health and environmental hazards.

The introduction of guidance on the new hazard classes (part 3.11: Endocrine disruption HH, part 4.2 Endocrine disruption env, and part 4.3: PBT/vPvB and PMT/vPvM) in parts 3 and 4 of the CLP guidance, respectively, required that the guidance be split into its various parts for easier use. Therefore, the guidance on the application of the CLP criteria is now presented in five documents.

Note: It is important to consult part 1 before consulting any subsequent parts
________

This new guidance series re-presents the ‘Parts’ of the Guidance on the Application of the CLP by presenting them as a series of separate documents for ease of use.

Besides this overview document, this new CLP Guidance series contains as separate guidance documents:

Part 1: General Principles for Classification and Labelling (Including Annex I: Collection of Internet links for the users of the Guidance)
Part 2: Physical Hazards (Including Annex I: Relation between Transport and CLP classification regarding Physical Hazards)
Part 3: Health Hazards (Including Annex I: Background document to the guidance for setting specific concentration limits for substances classified for reproductive toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008)
Part 4: Environmental Hazards and Part 5: Additional Hazards (Including Annexes: I. Aquatic Toxicity II. Rapid Degradation III. Bioacumulation IV. Metals and Inorganic Metal Compounds

Note: Although split into separate parts, these guidance series documents together constitute a single Guidance on the Application of the CLP Criteria. As such, users of the CLP Guidance series should take care to carefully consult Part 1: General Principles for Classification and Labelling before progressing to any of the subsequent parts.

For a full explanation and details of the reorganisation, including explanations of the revised annex and version numbers, please see sections 2 and 3 below.
