Nano substances: cosmetics guideline

The European association “Cosmetics Europe” published a guideline on the correct implementation of Regulation 1223/2009/EC. The “Nano Guidance Package” is made of 5 documents, edited by special working groups formed by industry experts, in order to support cosmetic companies with the issues of nano materials when present in cosmetics. The association considered a Guidance was necessary due to the lack of more specific information by the Authorities.  The guideline is currently available only in English.
