ECHA publiceert eindrapport over ftalaten DINP en DIDP

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), at the request of the European Commission, has reviewed the scientific evidence on the risks posed by articles containing the phthalates DINP and DIDP. Based on an existing restriction, these phthalates cannot be used in toys and childcare articles which can be placed in the mouth by children. Following a public consultation and an opinion by ECHA's Committee for Risk Assessment on the draft version of the review report, ECHA concludes in its final report that a risk from the mouthing of toys and childcare articles with DINP and DIDP cannot be excluded if the existing restriction were lifted. No further risks were identified. ECHA therefore concluded that there is no evidence that would justify a re-examination of the existing restriction.
