Now that we've covered what EUH statements are, let’s dive into practical scenarios where these labels come into play.

Example 1: Cyanoacrylate adhesives

If you're a supplier of cyanoacrylate adhesives, one thing you’ll often deal with is cyanoacrylate.

In this case, you're required to label your products with EUH202: " Cyanoacrylate. Danger. Bonds skin and eyes in seconds. Keep out of the reach of children.«

This is essential to inform users of what the use of such adhesives can potentially cause.

Example 2: Epoxy resins

A similar requirement applies if you're working with epoxy resins.

If they contain epoxy constituents with an average molecular weight ≤ 700, you must add EUH205: "Contains epoxy constituents. May produce an allergic reaction."

This ensures that users are aware of the risks, especially those prone to allergic reactions when handling epoxy products.

Example 3: chlorine-based cleaners

Consider chlorine-based cleaners.

If you're selling these products to consumers and they contain more than 1% of active chlorine, it’s mandatory to include EUH206: "Warning! Do not use together with other products. May release dangerous gases (chlorine)."

This label warns the user of the potential release of chlorine gas when mixed with other household cleaners, providing a crucial safety message for everyday use.

We try to teach with practical examples. Or in words of famous Albert Einstein "Example isn't another way to teach, it is the only way to teach."

Chemical legislation is a very demanding area.

It's rapidly changing, developing and demanding lots of time to be on top of it. If you don't have the time or energy to monitor and implement these changes, then it might be a perfect time to contact us.
