EU Ecolabel criteria for paints and varnishes: assessment of derogation requests for biocide substances
Background research 2022-2023
This report is intended to provide the background scientific information for the European Commission to respond to a number of derogation requests received for certain hazardous substances in response to Commission Decision 2014/312/EU setting the EU Ecolabel criteria for the indoor and outdoor paints and varnishes product group.
To support the possible process of derogation from the EU Ecolabel criteria for indoor and outdoor paints and varnishes, this report consists of:
— a general background to the EU Ecolabel with emphasis on the application of Articles 6(6) and 6(7) of EU Ecolabel Regulation (EC) No 66/2010;
— the market situation and baseline information on hazardous substances, biocides and Regulation (EC) 1907/2006 (REACH) and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP);
— a technical assessment of each substance derogation request.
This background information, combined with input received from the stakeholders involved, has been used to provide the final conclusions on the derogation requests received from stakeholders.
