CLP Training (Classification, Labelling and Packaging)
CLP is the legislation which enforces the Global Harmonisation System (GHS) in the EU and replaces the Dangerous Substances Directive (DSD) and Dangerous Preparation Directive (DPD). CLP came into force on the 1st December 2010 and requires re-classification of many substances and mixtures. CLP is not the same as GHS; GHS is based on a building block approach and is a regulatory model rather than legislation.
Therefore, each country must implement under their own legislation selecting the elements they find most relevant and adding their own elements if required. The EU has produced the CLP legislation on behalf of all Member States and it is currently in force for pure substances only – mixtures (formally known as preparations) will need to comply with the legislation by June 2015.
CLP incorporates REACH therefore it will be the classification and labelling protocol under REACH.
