Poison Centre Virtual Training Workshop

Description

                     BASA Members Virtual Poison Centres Workshop: 

Tuesday 12th November via Microsoft Teams

Annex VIII to CLP sets out deadlines by which notifications in the new harmonised format must have been completed via the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) notification portal. The compliance dates for ‘Consumer or Professional’ and ‘Industrial’ use products have now passed.

The final compliance date of the 1 January 2025 applies to any remaining notifications previously notified through Member State national systems and still benefiting from the transition period. These notifications will be required to comply with Annex VIII of CLP by the final compliance date, 1st January 2025.

Businesses must ensure their remaining notifications for any mixture classified as hazardous are completed via the ECHA notification portal, and that a Unique Formula Identifier (UFI) has been generated for their product(s) and added to labels and SDS as required.

The regulation describes the information required to be notified and introduces the requirement to print a Unique Formula Identifier (UFI) on mixture labels. Importers and downstream users placing hazardous mixtures on the market, and distributors who modify the label or packaging for hazardous mixtures, will need to notify the ingredients in those mixtures classified as hazardous for physical effects and/or health effects.

This training will cover:

• What needs to be notified
• The deadlines
