Update | REACH - Tattoo Ink

 

This week, the REACH page was updated to include the following information - 

 

What's happening with tattoo inks in the EU –

Restriction of hazardous substances in tattoo inks and permanent make-up

To protect European citizens, thousands of hazardous chemicals found in tattoo inks and permanent make-up are restricted in the EU under the REACH Regulation from January 2022. The aim is not to ban tattooing but to make the colours used in tattoos and permanent make-up safer.

Please find more information on this restriction here.

Furthermore, the restriction and Annex for further guidance on the restricted substances can be found here.
