CLP is based on the United Nations’ Globally Harmonised System (GHS)

The CLP Regulation ensures that the hazards presented by chemicals are clearly communicated to workers and consumers in the European Union through classification and labelling of chemicals.

Before placing chemicals on the market, the industry must establish the potential risks to human health and the environment of such substances and mixtures, classifying them in line with the identified hazards. The hazardous chemicals also have to be labelled according to a standardised system so that workers and consumers know about their effects before they handle them.

Thanks to this process, the hazards of chemicals are communicated through standard statements and pictograms on labels and safety data sheets.

Objective: ONE GLOBAL ONE SUBSTANCE CLASSIFICATION.

GHS – CLP establish a common and coherent system to determine the chemical hazard (classification criteria) and to communicate the hazard (labeling).
