Key areas of regulatory challenge. - September 15, 2025

The Partnership for Assessment of Risk from Chemicals (PARC) provides a forum for collaboration across Europe between scientists and regulators and aims to pioneer scientific areas addressing most urgent regulatory challenges. In 2023, ECHA published a first map of its key areas of regulatory challenge with the aim to inform and inspire the PARC community developing research of most regulatory relevance. For this 2025 update, we introduced new topics in line with our developing mandate, such as topics to support our future work under the Drinking Water and Water Framework Directive. We also added key topics related to circularity, such as the valuation of chemical-related environmental impacts and releases at the waste stage. In addition, we updated our existing research priorities, particularly in the areas of endocrine disruption, persistence, and the characterisation of polymers. Other topics have received updated status information compared to 2024.

Annual Report 2024 : executive summary. - June 23, 2025

ECHA’s achievements in 2024 reflect a strong commitment to our strategic goals and priorities, as well as our vision of chemical safety through science, collaboration and knowledge. We continued to progress and implement our existing legal mandate and also commenced implementation of several new tasks. Our role continues to expand, and in 2024, we supported decision makers as they prepared for the introduction of further new regulatory tasks for the Agency. Throughout the year, we collaborated closely with our many stakeholders, including Member States, the Commission, EU agencies, industry and NGOs. This engagement ensures we can deliver transparent, independent and high-quality scientific opinions and decisions and ensure duty holders meet their legal obligations. While much has been achieved in 2024, the Agency continues to face challenges, which will need to be addressed over the coming period. However, we also took steps to address how the Agency can tackle several of these challenges by modifying our ways or working in the future.

Dermal Absorption and Metabolism of [14C]-C12 Alkyl Benzoate in Finsolv® TN in Human Skin In Vitro - June 12, 2025

C12 alkyl benzoate is present in the commercial emollient cosmetic ingredient C12-15 alkyl benzoate (Finsolv® TN). Finsolv® TN is a mixture of linear and branched esters of benzoic acid and aliphatic alcohols where linear C12 alkyl benzoate is a representative homologue with the shortest alkyl C-chain and lowest molecular weight. A preliminary non-GLP in vitro skin penetration study which monitored dermal bioavailability of all C12-15 alkyl benzoate constituents using GC-MS was carried out which demonstrated C12 alkyl benzoate could be considered a worst-case representative constituent to determine dermal absorption of the overall substance. Subsequently, [¹⁴C]-C12 alkyl benzoate was mixed into Finsolv® TN, and applied, neat (10 µL/cm²), to dermatomed human skin mounted in a flow through diffusion cell system. Receptor fluid was collected up to 24 h post dose and the skin was decontaminated at 8 h post dose. The absorbed dose, dermal delivery, potentially absorbable dose and dermally absorbed value of [¹⁴C]-C12 alkyl benzoate were 0.41, 0.97, 2.20 and 2.97%, respectively. Metabolism during absorption was assessed in skin from the same donors, with no C12 alkyl benzoate detected in the receptor fluid, although the primary metabolite, [¹⁴C]-benzoic acid (>93%), was detected. A phenyl acetate esterase assay confirmed the presence of esterase activity in the donor skins used. Therefore, this study confirmed that dermal exposure of C12-15 alkyl benzoate (Finsolv® TN) results in an absorbed dose of 2.97% completely metabolized to benzoic acid and aliphatic alcohol(s) in human skin. These findings indicate that a more in-depth investigation and assessment of toxicokinetic behavior (specifically for occupational exposures via the skin) provide opportunities to develop exposure-led strategies to avoid unnecessary animal testing allowing registrants to fulfil obligations to adhere to the “last resort” principle under REACH.

Guidelines for the measurement of formaldehyde releases from articles and formaldehyde concentrations in the interior of vehicles : April 2025. - June 2, 2025

The proper assessment of the confidentiality of the information contained in the ARs and PARs is important to ensure the correct dissemination of information on active substances (AS) and biocidal products (BP) as required under Article 67 of the Regulation (EU) 528/2012 (“Biocidal Products Regulation” (BPR)). It is also relevant in the context of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 (“ATD Regulation”) and equivalent national provisions, since the dissemination of ARs and PARs will possibly limit the number of access to documents requests. Note that these guidelines are without prejudice to confidentiality claims related to Directive 2003/4/EC on public access to environmental information. Two documents on the confidentiality claims check were prepared by ECHA (CA-March14-Doc.7.2.1 and CA-March14-Doc.7.2.23) and presented at the 55th CA meeting. A revised proposal for the assessment of confidentiality claims was agreed in the 56th CA meeting. This document elaborates guidelines in more detail on the general principles for assessing confidentiality requests by the evaluating body and on their practical application in relation to dissemination of ARs and PARs. Dissemination directly from the IUCLID dossier was not considered in this revision. The Biocides Submission Manual (BSM) Process of confidentiality requests for biocide applications provides information on the content of confidentiality claims and aims to help applicant for preparing their IUCLID dossiers.
