Home and Personal Care Labelling
Personal care labelling covers a wide range of applications, from mass market products to luxury goods, in the areas of hair care, skin care, oral hygiene, sun care, bath and shower, fragrances and perfumes as well as colour cosmetics.
While the main concern in this area is with the visual appearance of the packaging there may also be issues regarding Health and Safety and the presence of any potentially dangerous chemicals.
Self-adhesive laminates manufactured by UPM Raflatac are safe products in accordance with the material description given by EC Directive 2001/95/EC, Article 2(b).
Material safety data sheets as referred to in Directive 1999/45/EC, Article 14 and Directive 2001/58/EC are not applicable to pressure sensitive materials.
The presence of heavy metals is a concern in many applications, including personal care. UPM Raflatac complies with legislation concerning the presence of heavy metals.
