The publication in the Official Journal of the European Union of the results of the study carried out on the phthalate di-isononilo (DINP) and the phthalate di-isodecilo (DIDP) marks the end of a process of 10 years of extensive scientific studies by regulators and provides confirmation of safe use for all users.
"After these conclusions of the European Union, the users can continue to the DINP and DIDP with confidence" said David Cadogan, Director of the European Council of Plastificantes and intermediate products (EPI).
In connection with the recent EU legislation on the marketing and use of DINP and DIDP in toys and child care articles, conclusions on risks published by the Gazette make clear that there is no need to take any other measures to regulate the use of the DINP and DIDP the.

Rigorous conclusions on the EU risks, which include a high degree of conservatism, according to the European Council of Plastificantes and intermediate products, have been carried out by France, the European Office of chemical products and States Member, under the strict supervision of the European Commission. They provide a clear scientific assessment envelope which can judge whether a particular substance can be used with security guarantees or not.
The same Bulletin also makes reference to the conclusions of the risk of other less used plasticizer, the BPD. Measures must be taken within the framework of the IPPC Directive (96/61/EC) and Directive (98/24/EC).
