#CLP, #Omnibus, #Deregulation
The Council of the European Union has approved “stop the clock” and postponed the entry into force of the provisions of the updated CLP Regulation to 1 January 2028.
The Council of the European Union has approved “stop the clock” for the provisions arising from the Regulation (EU) 2024/2865 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2024, amending the CLP Regulation.
The new CLP regulations from 2024 include:
- Labeling regulations
- New label format
- Advertising of chemical products
- Distance selling rules / online sale
- Requirements for refill stations
- Distributor PCN obligations
The regulations postpone all application dates until January 1, 2028. This means that the June 1, 2026, and January 1, 2027 deadlines will no longer apply, giving businesses more time to adapt to the changes, implement the appropriate deadlines, and utilize existing chemical product label stocks.
The regulation is part of Omnibus VI, a comprehensive package of simplifications for existing regulations in the European Union.
The legislative act will be published in the Official Journal of the EU in the coming days.
