COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2023/707

of 19 December 2022

amending Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 as regards hazard classes and criteria for the classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures, amending and repealing Directives 67/548/EEC and 1999/45/EC, and amending Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (1), and in particular Article 53(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Parts 2 to 5 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 contain harmonised criteria for the classification of substances, mixtures and certain articles in hazard classes and in differentiations of those hazard classes and set out provisions on how those criteria are to be met as well as the corresponding labelling requirements. Part 3 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 contains criteria on health hazards and Part 4 of that Annex contains criteria on environmental hazards.

(2)	The European Green Deal (2) sets out the goal to better protect human health and the environment as part of an ambitious approach to tackle pollution from all sources and move towards a toxic-free environment.

(3)

The need to establish a legally binding hazard identification of endocrine disruptors, based on the definition established by the World Health Organization in 2002 (3) and building on criteria already developed for plant protection products (4) and biocidal products (5), and to apply it across all Union legislation, is highlighted in the Commission’s Communication ‘Chemicals strategy for sustainability towards a toxic-free environment’ (6). That Communication also points to the need to include new hazard classes and criteria in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 in order to fully address environmental toxicity, persistency, mobility and bioaccumulation.

(4)

The Commission has conducted an impact assessment on the addition of new hazard classes and criteria in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, which encompassed an open public consultation, as well as a stakeholder consultation. The Commission has also consulted the European Chemicals Agency’s expert group on persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic chemicals, the competent authorities for REACH and CLP (CARACAL), as well as the subgroup on endocrine disruptors of that expert group, on the new hazard classes and criteria for classification and labelling of substances and mixtures, and has taken into account their scientific advice.

(5)

Based on experience and increased scientific knowledge gained in identifying substances as substances of very high concern due to their endocrine disrupting properties as well as in identifying substances as PBT (persistent, bioaccumulative, toxic), vPvB (very persistent, very bioaccumulative), PMT (persistent, mobile, toxic) and vPvM (very persistent, very mobile) under Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council (7), it is necessary to adapt Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 to technical and scientific progress by introducing new hazard classes and criteria. The scientific criteria against which available evidence for classification in those hazard classes are to be assessed should reflect the current state of the science.

(6)

Substances and mixtures with endocrine disrupting properties pose a concern to public health and the environment. It has been proven that endocrine disruption can lead to certain disorders in humans, among others birth defects, developmental, reproductive or neurodevelopmental disorders, cancer, diabetes and obesity, and that those disorders have a high and increasing incidence in both children and adults. It has also been demonstrated that endocrine disrupting properties can negatively affect animal populations.

(7)

Experience shows that substances and mixtures with PBT or vPvB properties represent a very high concern. They do not easily break down in the environment and tend to accumulate in living organisms across the food web. Accumulation of those substances in the environment is difficult to reverse, as their environmental concentration does not readily decrease by lowering their emissions, and the effects of this accumulation are often difficult to predict in the long-term. Moreover, certain PBT and vPvB substances which undergo long-range transport have the potential to contaminate remote pristine areas. Once those substances are released into the environment, exposure to them is difficult to reverse, which leads to cumulative exposure of both animals and humans via the environment.

(8)

PMT and vPvM substances pose concerns as, due to their high persistence together with a high mobility that is a consequence of their low adsorption potential, they can enter the water cycle, including drinking water, and spread over long distances. Many PMT and vPvM substances are only partly removed by wastewater treatment processes and can even break through the most advanced purification processes at drinking water treatment facilities. Such incomplete removal coupled with new emissions mean that the concentration of those PMT and vPvM substances in the environment increase over time. Once released into the environment, exposure to PMT and vPvM substances is difficult to reverse, which leads to cumulative exposure of both animals and humans via the environment. Any effects from this exposure are unpredictable in the long-term.

(9)

In light of the increased scientific knowledge and experience gained in identifying endocrine disruptors for human health and the environment as well as PBT, vPvB, PMT and vPvM substances and mixtures, it is appropriate to introduce hazard classes and labelling requirements for those substances and mixtures and the corresponding scientific criteria to identify them.

(10)

The level of evidence as regards endocrine disrupting properties may be of different scientific strength. It is therefore appropriate to create two categories of endocrine disruptors: known or presumed endocrine disruptors (category 1) and suspected endocrine disruptors (category 2), both for human health and for the environment.

(11)

When developing guidance on the application of the endocrine disruptor criteria, the European Chemicals Agency can benefit from the experience gained from the implementation of legislation on plant protection products and biocidal products and other scientific justifications, in order to provide guidelines that clarify which effects not leading to chronic outcomes for human health and the environment could fall outside the definition of ‘adverse effect’.

(12)

The intrinsic properties of PBT and vPvB substances and mixtures display similarities, but they differ substantially with regard to the toxicity criterion. It is therefore appropriate to create a new hazard class, with differentiation, while establishing common rules for the scientific assessment of the intrinsic properties related to persistency and bioaccumulation.

(13)

The intrinsic properties of PMT and vPvM substances and mixtures display similarities, but they differ substantially with regard to the toxicity criterion. It is therefore appropriate to create a new hazard class, with differentiation, while establishing common rules for the scientific assessment of the intrinsic properties related to persistency and mobility.

(14)

In order to allow for adequate classification of substances and mixtures as PBT and vPvB, whether or not registered under Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the existing criteria for identification of PBT and vPvB substances set out in Section 1 of Annex XIII to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 should be included in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. In this regard, any introduction of hazard categories for PBT and vPvB in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 would not be appropriate in view of the high level of scientific strength of the evidence required to fulfil the PBT and vPvB criteria – which mirror those so far laid down in Annex XIII to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006. Moreover, the screening information laid down in that Annex, to be considered when screening for P, vP, B, vB and T properties, serves a different purpose than hazard identification and classification. In addition, the development of criteria for further hazard categories based on that screening information would lead to overclassification and significant overlaps with existing environmental classification. Therefore, it would not be appropriate to introduce additional hazard categories for PBT and vPvB in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.

(15)

The classification criteria for M/vM relate, in particular, to the log Koc (soil adsorption coefficient) value. The Koc value is the organic carbon-water partition coefficient and reflects the ability of a substance to be adsorbed on the organic fraction of solid environmental compartments such as soil, sludge and sediment, and is therefore inversely related to the substances’ potential of entering into ground water. It is therefore appropriate to assess the mobility criterion against the log Koc value of a substance, a low Koc implying a high mobility.

(16)

Providing for new hazard classes entails introducing those classes with their name, their respective hazard statements and their respective hazard category codes. It is therefore necessary to include those hazard classes, hazard statements and category codes in Annexes I, III and VI to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. ‘EUH statements’ – (EU hazard statements) – should be included and they should function as ‘H-statements’(‘main’ hazard statements).

(17)

Pictograms are an essential tool to communicate hazard information. They should be added to the hazard information on the new hazard classes, upon their adoption at the UNGHS in order to avoid interference with the use of the existing pictograms covering current hazards. In case new pictograms are created for these new hazard classes, they should be agreed at UNGHS first so that they can apply across the UNGHS members.

(18)

To ensure that suppliers of substances and mixtures have time to adapt to the new classification and labelling requirements, provisions on deferred application of the obligation to classify and label substances and mixtures in accordance with this Regulation should be included in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. That Annex should also provide for the possibility for substances and mixtures which are already placed on the market before the end of that deferral period, to continue being placed on the market without being classified and labelled in accordance with this Regulation, to avoid additional burden on suppliers of substances and mixtures.

(19)

In line with the transitional provisions set out in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 which allow the application of the new provisions at an earlier stage on a voluntary basis, suppliers should have the possibility of applying the new classification and labelling provisions before the date of application of the obligations to classify and label substances and mixtures in accordance with this Regulation.

(20)	Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

ANNEX I

Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 is amended as follows:

(1)

in Part 3, the following Section 3.11 is added:

‘3.11. Endocrine disruption for human health

3.11.1. Definitions and general considerations

3.11.1.1. Definitions

For the purposes of Section 3.11, the following definitions shall apply:

(a)	“endocrine disruptor” means a substance or a mixture that alters one or more functions of the endocrine system and consequently causes adverse effects in an intact organism, its progeny, populations or subpopulations;

(b)	“endocrine disruption” means the alteration of one or more functions of the endocrine system caused by an endocrine disruptor;

(c)	“endocrine activity” means an interaction with the endocrine system that may result in a response of that system, of target organs or target tissues, and that confers on a substance or the mixture the potential to alter one or more functions of the endocrine system;

(d)

“adverse effect” means a change in morphology, physiology, growth, development, reproduction or lifespan of an organism, system, population or subpopulation that results in an impairment of functional capacity, an impairment of the capacity to compensate for additional stress or an increase in susceptibility to other influences;

(e)	“biologically plausible link” means the correlation between an endocrine activity and an adverse effect, based on biological processes, where the correlation is consistent with existing scientific knowledge.

3.11.1.2. General considerations

3.11.1.2.1.

Substances and mixtures fulfilling the criteria of endocrine disruptors for human health based on evidence referred to in Table 3.11.1 shall be considered to be known, presumed or suspected endocrine disruptors for human health unless there is evidence conclusively demonstrating that the adverse effects are not relevant to humans.

3.11.1.2.2.

Evidence that is to be considered for classification of substances in accordance with other Sections of this Annex may also be used for classification of substances as an endocrine disruptor for human health where the criteria provided in this Section are met.

3.11.2. Classification criteria for substances

3.11.2.1. Hazard categories

For the purpose of classification for endocrine disruption for human health, substances shall be allocated to one of two categories.

Table 3.11.1.

Hazard categories for endocrine disruptors for human health

Categories

Criteria

CATEGORY 1

Known or presumed endocrine disruptors for the environment

The classification in Category 1 shall be largely based on evidence from at least one of the following:

a)	animal data;

b)	non-animal data providing an equivalent predictive capacity as data in point a.

Such data shall provide evidence that the substance meets all the following criteria:

(a)	endocrine activity;

(b)	an adverse effect in an intact organism or its offspring or future generations;

(c)	a biologically plausible link between the endocrine activity and the adverse effect.

However, where there is information that raises serious doubt about the relevance of the adverse effects identified at population or subpopulation level, classification in Category 2 may be more appropriate.

CATEGORY 2

Suspected endocrine disruptors for the environment

A substance shall be classified in Category 2 where all the following criteria are met:

(a)

there is evidence of:

i.	an endocrine activity; and

ii.	an adverse effect in an intact organism or its offspring or future generations;

(b)	the evidence referred to in point (a) is not sufficiently convincing to classify the substance in Category 1;

(c)	there is evidence of a biologically plausible link between the endocrine activity and the adverse effect.

Where there is evidence conclusively demonstrating that the adverse effects identified are not relevant at the population or subpopulation level, the substance shall not be considered an endocrine disruptor for the environment.

4.2.2.2. Basis of classification

4.2.2.2.1

Classification shall be made on the basis of the appropriate criteria outlined above, and a weight of evidence determination of each of the criteria (see Section 4.2.2.3) and an overall weight of evidence determination (see Section 1.1.1). Classification as an endocrine disruptor for the environment is intended to be used for substances which cause or may cause an endocrine-related adverse effect at population or subpopulation level.

4.2.2.2.2

Adverse effects that are solely non-specific consequences of other toxic effects shall not be considered for the identification of a substance as endocrine disruptor for the environment.

4.2.2.3. Weight of evidence and expert judgment

4.2.2.3.1.

Classification as an endocrine disruptor for the environment is made on the basis of an assessment of the total weight of evidence using expert judgment (see Section 1.1.1). This means that all available information that bears on the determination of endocrine disruption for the environment is considered together, such as:

(a)	in vivo studies or other studies (e.g. in vitro, in silico studies) predictive of adverse effects, endocrine activity or biologically plausible link in animals;

(b)	data from analogue substances using structure-activity relationships (SAR),

(c)	evaluation of substances chemically related to the substance under study may also be included (grouping, read-across), particularly when information on the substance is scarce;

(d)	any additional relevant and acceptable scientific data.

4.2.2.3.2.

In applying the weight of evidence determination and expert judgement, the assessment of the scientific evidence referred to in Section 4.2.2.3.1 shall, in particular, consider all of the following factors:

(a)	both positive and negative results;

(b)	the relevance of the study design for the assessment of adverse effects and its relevance at the population or subpopulation level, and for the assessment of the endocrine activity;

(c)	the adverse effects on reproduction, growth/development, and other relevant adverse effects which are likely to impact on populations or subpopulations;

(d)	the quality and consistency of the data, considering the pattern and coherence of the results within and between studies of a similar design and across different species;

(e)	the route of exposure, toxicokinetic and metabolism studies;

(f)	the concept of the limit dose (concentration), and international guidelines on maximum recommended doses (concentrations) and for assessing confounding effects of excessive toxicity;

(g)	where available, adequate, reliable and representative field or monitoring data or results from population models.

4.2.2.3.3.

4.2.2.3.4.

Using a weight of evidence determination, evidence considered for the classification of a substance as an endocrine disruptor for human health referred to in Section 3.11 shall be considered when assessing the classification of the substance as an endocrine disruptor for the environment under Section 4.2.

4.2.2.4. Application in time

From 1 May 2025 at the latest, substances shall be classified in accordance with the criteria laid down in Sections 4.2.2.1 to 4.2.2.3.

However, substances which were placed on the market before 1 May 2025 are not required to be classified in accordance with the criteria laid down in Sections 4.2.2.1 to 4.2.2.3 until 1 November 2026.

4.2.3. Classification criteria for mixtures

4.2.3.1. Classification of mixtures where data are available for all components or only for some components of the mixture

4.2.3.1.1.

A mixture shall be classified as an endocrine disruptor for the environment where at least one component has been classified as a Category 1 or Category 2 endocrine disruptor for the environment and is present at or above the appropriate generic concentration limit as shown in Table 4.2.2 for Category 1 and Category 2, respectively.

Table 4.2.2.

Generic concentration limits of components of a mixture classified as endocrine disruptor for the environment that trigger classification of the mixture

Component classified as:	Generic concentration limits triggering classification of a mixture as:
Component classified as:	Category 1 endocrine disruptor for the environment	Category 2 endocrine disruptor for the environment
Category 1 endocrine disruptor for the environment	≥ 0,1 %
Category 2 endocrine disruptor for the environment		≥ 1 % [Note 1 ]

Note:

The concentration limits in this Table apply to solids and liquids (w/w units) as well as gases (v/v units).

Note 1:

If a Category 2 endocrine disruptor for the environment is present in the mixture as an ingredient at a concentration ≥ 0,1 % a SDS shall be available for the mixture upon request.

4.2.3.2. Classification of mixtures where data are available for the complete mixture

4.2.3.2.1.

Classification of mixtures shall be based on the available test data for the individual components of the mixture using concentration limits for the components classified as endocrine disruptor for the environment. On a case-by-case basis, test data on the mixture as a whole may be used for classification when demonstrating endocrine disruption for the environment that has not been established from the evaluation based on the individual components. In such cases, the test results for the mixture as a whole must be shown to be conclusive taking into account dose (concentration) and other factors such as duration, observations, sensitivity and statistical analysis of the test systems. Adequate documentation supporting the classification shall be retained and made available for review upon request.

4.2.3.3. Classification of mixtures where data are not available for the complete mixture: bridging principles

4.2.3.3.1.

Where the mixture itself has not been tested to determine its endocrine disruption for the environment, but there are sufficient data on the individual components and similar tested mixtures (subject to paragraph 4.2.3.2.1) to adequately characterise the hazards of the mixture, those data shall be used in accordance with the applicable bridging principles set out in Section 1.1.3.

4.2.3.4. Application in time

From 1 May 2026 at the latest, mixtures shall be classified in accordance with the criteria laid down in Sections 4.2.3.1 to 4.2.3.3.

However, mixtures which were placed on the market before 1 May 2026 are not required to be classified in accordance with the criteria laid down in Sections 4.2.3.1, 4.2.3.2 and 4.2.3.3 until 1 May 2028.

4.2.4. Hazard Communication

4.2.4.1.

Label elements shall be used in accordance with Table 4.2.3 for substances and mixtures meeting the criteria for classification in this hazard class (Endocrine disruption for the environment).

Table 4.2.3.

4.3.1. Definitions and general considerations

4.3.1.1.

For the purposes of Section 4.3 the following definitions shall apply:

“PBT” means a persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic substance or mixture that meets the classification criteria set out in Section 4.3.2.1.

“vPvB” means a very persistent and very bioaccumulative substance or mixture that meets the classification criteria set out in Section 4.3.2.2.

4.3.1.2.

The hazard class Persistent, Bioaccumulative and Toxic or Very Persistent, Very Bioaccumulative properties is differentiated into:

—	PBT properties and,

—	vPvB properties.

4.3.2. Classification criteria for substances

4.3.2.1. Classification criteria for PBT

A substance shall be considered a PBT substance when it fulfils the persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity criteria set out in Sections 4.3.2.1.1 to 4.3.2.1.3 and assessed according to Section 4.3.2.3.

4.3.2.1.1. Persistence

A substance shall be considered to fulfil the persistence criterion (P) where any of the following conditions is met:

(a)	the degradation half-life in marine water is higher than 60 days;

(b)	the degradation half-life in fresh or estuarine water is higher than 40 days;

That weight of evidence shall be applied in particular where the criteria set out in Sections 4.3.2.1 and 4.3.2.2 cannot be applied directly to the available information.

The information used for the purposes of assessment of the PBT/vPvB properties shall be based on data obtained under relevant conditions.

The identification shall also take account of the PBT/vPvB properties of relevant constituents, additives or impurities of a substance and relevant transformation or degradation products.

This hazard class (Persistent, Bioaccumulative and Toxic (PBT) or Very Persistent, Very Bioaccumulative (vPvB) properties) shall apply to all organic substances, including organo-metals.

The information set out in Sections 4.3.2.3.1, 4.3.2.3.2 and 4.3.2.3.3 shall be considered for the assessment of P, vP, B, vB and T properties.
