Cyprus E.U. CLP/DPD Label Review

National Regulations Governing Labels:
Cyprus is a member of the European Union and as such is bound by EU regulations. For pure substances, Austrian labels must be compliant with the EU’s GHS based CLP-regulation No. 1272/2008 – labels created to be compliant with Directive 67/548/EEC have expired. For mixtures, labels can be compliant with either 1272/2008 or with the previous Directive 1999/45/EC.

 

Additional Regulations:
Cyprus is fully compliant with EU chemical regulation, refer here to view full legislation of the Cyprus Chemical Substances Law of 2010 (Law 78(I)/2010). For additional information on Cyprus chemical policy please refer to the Department of Labour Inspection chemical substance page. Additional information on labeling and standards can be found on the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) website.

 

GHS Implementation Status:
The EU has fully adopted GHS under their CLP Regulation (Regulation on classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures). The deadline for having new Labels has passed for pure substances – it was November 30, 2010. The deadline for mixtures is May 31, 2015. Not all the building blocks in the United Nations’ Purple Book were adopted by the EU CLP regulation.
