The Impact of the European Strategy for a Toxic Free Environment on the Future Cosmetic Regulation by Expertox

18 January 2023

In the context of the European strategy for a toxic free environment, EXPERTOX can support you either for the analysis of your materials, or also for regulatory procedures and risk assessment in
order to comply the future regulation requirements of the cosmetic regulation. These changes are pushing manufacturers to innovate. Concerning active substances, as for example UV filters, since some of them are suspected endocrine disruptor, and could impact or deteriorate the marine environment, new substances are now being developed, including UV-tolerant compounds derived from algae. Indeed, they are considered safe and have negligible cytotoxicity effects on humans, a full ecotoxicity and toxicity profile should be evaluated within this future regulation context.
