7 GHS - PRACTICAL INFORMATION PRACTICAL INFORMATION 1 Globally harmonized system (GHS) in the EU the new classification and labeling in accordance with CLP regulation (EG) No. 1272/2008 GHS 01 GHS 02 GHS 03 GHS 04 GHS 05 GHS 06 GHS 07 GHS 08 GHS 09 exploding flame flame gas cylinder caustic effect death‘s exclamation health environment bomb over circle head point hazard While the previous R- and S-clauses have been subjected to no particular system, the new hazard (H) and precautionary notes (P) are classified. According to the new regulation on hazardous substances 2010 a near-term adapting to CLP- and REACH-regulation has succeeded. The new regulation on hazardous substances is absolutely hazard-minded. The determination of precautionary measures is exclusively a result of a risk assessment. This can be easily derived from the following chart: serial number serial number classification classification 2 = physical hazards 3 = health risk 4 = ecological menace 1 = general remarks 2 = prevention 3 = response 4 = storage 5 = disposal stands for hazard note (Hazard Statement) stands for precautionary note (Precautionary Statement) Setup of H- and P-clauses Regulation on hazardous substances (GefStoffV) new 2010! Became valid on January 20, 2009. It regulates classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures CLP = Regulation on Classification, Labelling and Packaging of substances and mixtures GHS = Globally Harmonized System Replaces the European guideline of substances 67/548/EWG as well as preparation directive 1999/45/EG ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 introduced a single European labeling system based on the Global Harmonized System (GHS). It standardizes the classification and labeling of hazardous substances and their mixtures and aligns them with the dangerous goods transport law ADR / GGVSEB. The GHS classification distinguishes between danger classes and danger categories. Instead of the 15 risk characteristics, there are now 28 danger classes. The respective danger classes are subdivided into danger categories to indicate the severity of danger. The information is to be supplemented by given danger warnings (H phrases and EUH phrases), signal words and safety instructions (P phrases). Furthermore, their classification criteria serve as the basis for further legislation based on the hazard classification, such as the 4th and 12th BImSchV for the reorientation of the assignments requiring approval to storage facilities or accident management companies. The CLP Regulation will be adapted as necessary to the changed needs and continuously revised, currently exists the 20. ATP (Adaptation to the Technical Progress).
