How do you handle EU REACH compliance and CLP classification for this bergamot oil?
We handle the full EU regulatory package for this bergamot oil — REACH obligations for importers/only-representatives, CLP classification and SDS — so EU customers can clear customs and place the product on the market smoothly.
EU Compliance Package
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| REACH | Natural essential oils of botanical origin are generally exempt from registration under REACH Art. 2(7)(b); SDS and CLP documentation are provided |
| CLP classification | 1272/2008: Asp. Tox. 1 H304 (may be fatal if swallowed and enters airways) for undiluted oil |
| IFRA/CoE | Compliant with IFRA 51st Amendment restrictions for bergamot oil (phototoxicity) |
| EU cosmetics | Regulation 1223/2009; FCF grade bergapten ≤1 ppm for leave-on products |
| Flavoring | EC 1334/2008 for food flavor use |
- Cold-pressed bergamot oil is classified Aspiration Hazard Category 1 (H304) under CLP; professional users receive an up-to-date SDS (safety data sheet)
- IFRA restriction 138 limits the use of cold-pressed bergamot oil in leave-on cosmetics to 0.4% due to phototoxicity; the FCF grade has no such limit (max 20%)
- Because bergapten is a recognized phototoxic furocoumarin, EU cosmetic finished products containing cold-pressed bergamot must observe the 1 ppm bergapten cap (Annex III)
- REACH exemption documentation, CLP labels and SDS in EU languages (EN/DE/FR) are supplied with every EU shipment
- We keep the SDS current (latest update per CLP Regulation (EU) 2020/1182 amendments for citrus oils)
