Frequently Asked Questions

  • Household products are used daily by diverse populations under varying conditions. Toxicological risk assessment ensures that every ingredient, impurity, and formulation meets safety standards, protects consumer health, and withstand regulatory scrutiny.

  • The GHS is a globally uniform framework that standardizes how chemical hazards are classified and communicated. It establishes a common language of safety for physical, health, and environmental hazards—enabling safer handling, cross-border trade, and regulatory consistency.

  • Household and hygiene products face multi-jurisdictional oversight:

    ·         United States: Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

    ·         European Union: CLP/GHS for hazard classification and other regulations such as the EU Detergent Regulation.

  • The EU CLP (Classification, Labelling, and Packaging) Regulation implements GHS standards in Europe. It provides legally binding rules for classifying substances and mixtures, mandates hazard communication through labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDS), and underpins chemical safety obligations under REACH.

  • SciQra delivers toxicological risk assessments tailored to household and hygiene products, GHS/EU CLP classification and labeling aligned with regulatory requirements, safety evaluation under the EU Detergent Regulation (EC) No 648/2004 and US CPSC, and preparation of regulatory dossiers and cleaning product registrations.
