The Toys and Cosmetic Products (Restriction of Chemical Substances) Regulations 2022

Distribution date: 02 September 2022 | Final date for Comment: 09 May 2025
These measures amend the Toys (Safety) Regulation 2011 as applicable in GB ("the Toys Regulations") and the Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009 as applicable in GB ("the Cosmetics Regulations”) as they apply in England, Wales and Scotland. They amend permitted levels of certain chemicals in both the Toys Regulations and the Cosmetics Regulations in order to ensure that only toys and cosmetics products that are considered safe can be placed on the GB market. The measure amends the technical annexes of both the toys and cosmetics regulations to either amend the permitted level of use of a specific chemical or prohibit its use. In terms of the rationale, these chemicals can be considered in three categories: 1. Carcinogen, Mutagen and Reprotoxic substances (CMRs)2. Fragrance allergens3. The Science Advisory Group-Chemical Safety (SAG-CS) reviews A shorter entry into force period is necessary to avoid potential negative impacts of the use and limits of certain chemicals currently used in some toys and cosmetics. A longer delay is a potential risk to human health. The draft provisions of concern to toy products being removed from the market were amended in the final version of the instrument. The provisions in the final Regulations aim to maintain consistency with ‘placing on the market’ language used previously and the date by which products must be taken off the market has been removed. The relevant compliance dates for toys are now as follows: Fragrance Allergens – Atranol, Chloroatranol and Methyl heptine carbonate: Non-compliant products cannot be placed on the market after 15 October 2022Chemicals assessed by SAG-CS – Aluminium, Formaldehyde, and aniline: Non-compliant products cannot be placed on the market after 15 December 2022
Products Covered: Toys and cosmetics products. More detail on product coverage can be found in regulation 4 of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011 and cosmetic products are defined by Article 2(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009.
