Amazon CLP Regulation (UK) | Simply explained

CLP Regulation (UK)

CLP Regulation refers to the Classification, Labeling, and Packaging of substances and mixtures as per UK law. It mirrors an amended version of the EU CLP Regulation effective post-Brexit under the Chemicals (Health and Safety) and Genetically Modified Organisms (Contained Use) Regulations 2019/720.

  • Objective: To ensure that chemical products display appropriate hazard warnings to inform consumers about potential risks before purchase.
  • Requirements: Online sellers must provide hazard statements, pictograms, and signal words on product detail pages. Compliance is crucial to continue product listings.
  • Documentation: Sellers must submit up-to-date safety data sheets, compliant with legal guidelines, for hazardous products. Failure to do so may risk non-compliance.

This regulation primarily impacts vendors selling chemical and hazardous goods online, requiring them to stay informed of any updates or changes in legislation.
