The new proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council seeks to regulate fluorinated greenhouse gases and their impact on the environment, amending Directive (EU) 2019/1937 and repealing Regulation (EU) No. 517/2014. From January 1, 2025, the marketing of products and equipment containing these gases will be prohibited, including personal care products such as mousse, creams, foams, liquids and aerosols.
After one year from the ban deadline, these products or equipment will only be allowed to be supplied or disposed of in the European Union if it can be demonstrated that they were placed on the market before January 1, 2025. It is important to note that the deadlines to comply with this regulation will be tight, so it is recommended to replace fluorinated greenhouse gases as soon as possible in finished products placed on the market.
We recommend that, if you own products with these gases, you make the relevant changes as soon as possible, as the deadlines are quite tight.
