This update of the Guidance on labelling and packaging in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 consists of a full revision of the guidance. The main aim of this revision was to align the guidance with the fourth and fifth Adaptations to Technical Progress (ATPs) to the CLP Regulation that brought the CLP in line with the fourth and fifth revised editions of the UN Globally Harmonised System (GHS), as well as the provisions of the ATP to CLP related to labelling and packaging of liquid laundry detergents
Finally, the update addresses the full entry into force of the CLP Regulation and the end of the transition period for labelling mixtures according to the Dangerous Preparation Directive (DSD) and classifying their components according to the Dangerous Substances Directive (DSD).
Alignment of the guidance with the eighth ATP to CLP is the subject of a further update, for which work is already on-going.
