Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/2081 amending REACH Annex XVII as regards substances in tattoo inks or permanent make-up

Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/2081 amended REACH Annex XVII to restrict substances in mixtures for tattooing or permanent make-up.

Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/2081 amended REACH Annex XVII to restrict substances in mixtures for tattooing or permanent make-up. Appendix 13 gives specific concentration limits by weight for several metals and metalloids. The loaded rows cover mercury, nickel, antimony, arsenic, cadmium, chromium VI, and lead. Organometallic tin is not loaded as elemental tin because the table regulates a compound class rather than a species-equivalent tin concentration.
