The CLP Regulation\u00a0<\/a><\/strong>regulates how the chemical products must be classified, packaged and labeled. CLP stands for Classification, Labeling and Packaging<\/em>. It is a community-wide regulation and develops in the EU the regulations that govern the United Nations-driven international level: the one known as the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) on classification, labeling and packaging of dangerous chemical substances.<\/p>\n

The main objective of the CLP regulation is to harmonize the classification of dangerous substances.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe basics of the CLP Regulation<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

CLP\u2019s main objective is to establish when a substance, as is or mixed with others, has to be considered as dangerous<\/strong> for human health or for the environment.<\/p>\n

It is necessary to classify and identify<\/strong> the concrete risks that this substance can cause. Then, those risks must be communicated through a normalized labeling<\/strong> to everyone who could be in contact with the substance during its storage, transport or manipulation.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, to ensure that transport and storage are adequate to the substance, rules are issued on how packaging<\/strong> should be produced.<\/p>\n

The CLP regulation is a normative regulation of what is known in engineering as \u201cproduct safety<\/strong>\u201d. Product safety is the discipline that deals with the evaluation and control of all risks associated with the products and the substances that compose them.<\/p>\n

Product safety<\/a><\/strong> is closely related to the so-called product guardianship<\/strong>, which sets the principles for ethical and responsible management of chemical products. Its philosophy is to ensure that the production and marketing of chemical products are done safely for people and the environment. The principles of safety and prevention must be present throughout the product life cycle: production, use and recycling.<\/p>\n

The CLP regulation<\/strong> has meant a great change in the information that must contain the containers of chemical products. The labeling and classification system is much more rigorous than the previous model that existed previously in the European Union.<\/p>\n

Chemicals are classified according to their danger in 28 types of hazards. These types, in turn, fall into three large danger groups:<\/p>\n
