From. February 2022, we change the name of these restriction lists linked to special requirements for allergenic chemical products, so that it will be even clearer to see which products are covered by which requirements.
The lists are based on Swedish legislation and are therefore only available to the Swedish market.
The restriction lists can be found as usual via Overview > Restriction and prohibition lists.
Background and purpose:
According to AFS 2011: 19, 37a-g§, there are special requirements for training, medical check ups and / or aptitude reports for handling certain allergenic chemical products.
The list is there to help identify these specific requirements and then act to create a safe working environment and avoid any fees.

Pro tip!
Are you wondering why a certain product is on any of the lists? Have a look in iSafe under 'Restriction and prohibition lists' which substance is causing the match. Then click on 'Show composition' to see what CAS number that substance has, and then search for that substance on ECHA:s homepage to know more about the substance. If you are unsure whether you are covered by the special requirements, we suggest contacting our consultants at consulting@intersolia.com
