EU Implements Stricter Labeling Requirements for Hazardous Liquid Coatings

The European Union has passed new legislation mandating clearer labeling on liquid coating products containing hazardous substances. Manufacturers must now specify toxicity levels, VOC content, and recommended handling practices on the labels. The aim is to provide consumers and workers with comprehensive information to enhance safety. Health experts have praised the legislation, emphasizing that clearer labels can reduce health risks, especially in home use and small businesses where knowledge of chemical hazards may be limited. This regulation marks a significant step in the EU's efforts to promote chemical safety.
