Specific health risks
Carcinogens (other sources) ?
Substances classified as carcinogens or mutagens Category 3 under the Dangerous Preparations Directive criteria (pre-CLP). Substances with limited evidence or indications of carcinogenicity or mutagenicity.
According to IARC ?
Substances classified as carcinogens or mutagens Category 2 under the CLP Regulation (GHS), bearing H351 and/or H341 phrases. These are substances suspected of causing cancer or heritable genetic mutations in humans.
Occupational Exposure Limits (OEL) ?
Daily exposure limit values (VLA-ED) published by the Spanish National Institute of Safety and Health at Work (INSST). They represent the average concentration of a chemical agent in the worker's breathing zone, measured or calculated in a time-weighted manner for an 8-hour daily working period. (https://www.insst.es/valores-limites-de-exposicion)
Carcinogens and mutagens (Regulation 1272/2008) ?
Substances classified as carcinogenic or mutagenic under Regulation 1272/2008
ListSpecific environmental risks
Atmospheric emissions ?
Substances subject to atmospheric emission limitations under the Industrial Emissions Directive (2010/75/EU) and its Spanish transposition. Includes pollutants regulated in industrial installation emission permits and best available technique reference documents (BAT/BREF).
ListRestriction/prohibition regulations
Major accident hazards (Seveso) ?
Hazardous substances listed in Annex I of the Seveso III Directive (Directive 2012/18/EU), transposed in Spain by Royal Decree 840/2015. Their presence in industrial establishments in quantities equal to or above established thresholds triggers obligations to implement major accident risk control measures.
ListBanned biocides ?
Active substances whose approval for biocidal use has been denied or not renewed under Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 on biocidal products. They may not be placed on the market or used as active substances in biocidal products in the European Union.
Substances under PACT evaluation ?
Substances under active regulatory monitoring through ECHA's PACT (Public Activities Coordination Tool). Allows tracking which regulatory authorities are examining a substance and what potential regulatory actions are being considered (restriction, SVHC identification, harmonised classification, etc.).
Authorized Pesticide ?
Active substances approved for use in plant protection products (agricultural pesticides) in the European Union under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. Includes herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides and other crop protection agents with current European-level approval.
