DETERGENT REGULATION (EU)
• No rule about full declaration (as for cosmetics)• Contact information to find full declaration
• Use and dosage information
• Preservation, enzymes, disinfectants, optical white and perfume need to be declared
• The 26 perfumes on EU’s list of most allergenic need to be declared with name
REGULATION – TRENDS FROM COSMETICS
• New EU regulation on claims on cosmetics• Not allowed to write “free from” (e.g. parabens, hormone disrupters, triclosan)• Restrictions on hypoallergenic (misleading)• Not allowed to demean ingredients which are legal and approved for cosmetics
• We believe that this focus will spread to detergents and cleaning products
EXAMPLES – TRENDS FROM COSMETICS
• Methyldibromglutaronitril (MG)• Regulation for cosmetics – banned in leave-on in 2005• Regulation for detergents and cleaning – banned in rinse-off in 2007
• Methylisothiazolinone (MI)• Regulation for cosmetics – Banned in leave-on in 2016• Regulation for detergents and cleaning – 15 PPM in rinse-off in 2019
EXAMPLES – HYPOALLERGENIC MISLEADING?
Water, Sodium Coco Sulfate(plant-powered surfactant), Cocamidopropylamine Oxide(plant-powered surfactant), Lauramine Oxide (plant-poweredsurfactant), Coco Betaine (plant-powered surfactant), Phenoxyethanol (preservative), Ethylhexylglycerin (preservative), Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate(plant-powered water softener), Natural Fragrance, Citric Acid(plant-powered pH adjuster), Limonene (essential oilcomponent), Citral (essential oilcomponent
THE FUTURE
• Full declaration on detergents and cleaning products
• Focus on claims – cosmetics regulation as a precursor
• Higher focus on skin friendly and not only natural
• Think skin friendly in development of products
• Be prepared by getting knowledge about the cosmetic products
