The “Omnibus VI” package on chemicals aims to simplify several obligations stemming from the CLP Regulation, the Cosmetics Regulation and the Fertilising Products Regulation, while maintaining a high level of protection of human health, consumers and the environment.

As the EU prepares for a new wave of inspections in 2026, economic operators will need to be more vigilant than ever: the ECHA has announced a major coordinated action to verify the classification, labelling and packaging of hazardous mixtures. This initiative, part of the REF‑14 project, reinforces the central role of the CLP Regulation in placing chemical and consumer products on the market, signalling heightened regulatory expectations across the entire supply chain.
