03/07/2025 - New Regulation on the Ordinance on Detergents and Surfactants
In March 2025, a draft by the European Commission for the re-regulation of detergents, surfactants, and WPR products (washing, cleaning, and cleaning agents) was adopted (draft No. C/2025/1354). The new regulation will eventually replace the existing Detergents Regulation (EC) No. 648/2004.
The following changes result:
- Labeling requirements for information that must be on the labels
- New: Introduction of a so-called digital product passport
- New: Requirements for detergents specifically containing microorganisms
- New measures regarding animal testing
- Adoption of fragrance regulations analogous to cosmetic products (extended labeling requirement for new allergens)
We examine your WPR products for microbiological contamination as well as chemical parameters (allergenic fragrances, preservatives, physical indicators, etc.). We look forward to hearing from you!
