About this session

Fragrance allergens are under the spotlight. With the EU’s update to Annex III of the Cosmetics Regulation, the list of allergens that must be declared on labels is expanding from 26 to 82. This shift brings new transparency for consumers and new demands for manufacturers. While the EU update is a key regulatory driver, allergen management and safety compliance are equally critical for brands operating across the UK, USA, Canada, and other global markets, each with their own requirements and expectations.

Many cosmetic brands are still unsure how to handle these changes across product lines, formulas, and markets. Questions often arise around identifying hidden allergens in raw materials, managing multi-market differences and knowing when label updates become mandatory. Teams can also struggle with supplier communication, documentation, and label space constraints.

This PRIMS Clarity Session showed how the extended allergen rules can affect your daily compliance work, how to prepare in time, and how PRIMS can simplify allergen traceability across your product portfolio.

Watch this session on playback to get a clear overview of the extended allergen requirements, understand the regulatory timelines, and see how to efficiently align your internal processes.
