CLP Consulting: Classification, Labelling and Notifications for EU Market Access

We help you identify your obligations under CLP, calculate hazard classifications for substances and mixtures, repare compliant labelling informations, and manage the required notifications to operate without compliance risks.

What is CLP and who does it apply to?

CLP regulates the classification, labelling and packaging of chemical substances and mixtures in the European Union. It mainly affects companies that manufacture, import or place chemical products on the EU market.

  • Scope: Harmonised criteria for hazard classification
  • Labelling: Obligation to communicate hazards through pictograms and hazard statements
  • Notifications: Submission to Poison Centres (UFI) and the C&L Inventory

Key actors

  • EU Manufacturer: Obligation to classify and notify
  • EU Importer: Responsible for ensuring compliance of imported products
  • Downstream User: Responsibilities in classification, labelling and Poison
    Centre notifications
  • Value chain: Proper communication of hazard information

Frequently Asked Questions about CLP

The CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 is mandatory in Europe and harmonizes the criteria for the classification, labelling, and packaging of substances and mixtures in the EU, based on the UN’s Globally Harmonized System (GHS). This obliges all companies to classify their products under new hazard classes and to modify their labels and Safety Data Sheets. If your labels still follow old regulations (already repealed), you cannot market your products. At ServiREACH, we review and prepare your labels to ensure they comply 100% with the current regulation.

Yes. According to Article 45 of the CLP, if you market mixtures classified as hazardous (due to their physical or health effects), you are obliged to notify this information to the Poison Centres of each EU country where you sell the product. ServiREACH executed this harmonized European notification for you, ensuring that your mixtures are correctly notified with the competent bodies for health emergencies.

Classification should not be done “by eye”. The CLP Regulation establishes strict technical criteria. We perform the professional hazard calculation for your substances and mixtures by applying these official criteria. We provide you with a justification report with detailed calculations and, if theoretical data is insufficient, we propose the necessary laboratory tests to support the actual classification of your product.

The Classification & Labelling (C&L) Notification is a mandatory procedure to communicate the classification and labelling of your substances to the ECHA (European Chemicals Agency). You must do this if you manufacture or import substances subject to REACH registration or classified as hazardous, and you have a maximum period of one month from their placement on the market.. If you have not yet done so, ServiREACH helps you process this notification quickly to avoid non-compliance.

Yes. We offer a CLP Diagnosis service where we analyze your specific commercial activity and your products to determine your exact obligations under the CLP Regulation. We evaluate your current degree of compliance and define a personalized strategy to correct any deficiencies, ensuring the protection of health, the environment, and the legal continuity of your business.
