Among other things, a minimum font size for labels will be specified. At the same time, the digital classification and labeling inventory of the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) is to become more transparent. Companies will be required to update their classifications within six months should the classification of the relevant chemical in the inventory have changed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Background and next steps<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The aim of the revision of the regulation is to encourage European industry to switch to sustainable chemicals.
