Call for evidence on possible restriction of substances of concern in single-use nappies for infants and children

Webinar date

30 January 2020 11:00 - 12:30 EET, GMT +2

Summary

The French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) announced its intention to propose a restriction of PAHs, furans, dioxins, PCBs and formaldehyde in single-use nappies for infants and children.

We will host a call for evidence to support the preparation of the proposal. The call for evidence starts in January 2020 and closes on 31 March 2020.

This information session is intended to clarify the scope of ANSES’ investigation and answer your questions related to the call for evidence. It is open for all, and will be most useful for those planning to provide information for the preparation of the restriction proposal. 

Media are invited to send their enquiries to press [at] echa.europa.eu.
