Boric acid and borates (restricted) (Health Canada Cosmetic Hotlist)
Boric acid is a naturally occurring chemical often used as a mild antiseptic, in insecticides, and as a flame retardant in products like plastics and textiles. It is also found in some cosmetics and household cleaners. Under the EU's REACH regulation, boric acid is listed on the Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) because it is classified as toxic for reproduction. This means it may harm fertility or the unborn child if people are exposed to it in significant amounts over time. The regulation aims to reduce risks by requiring companies to manage and communicate its use. You can find more details on the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) website at https://echa.europa.eu/candidate-list-table.

Boric acid
Boric acid is a chemical substance that appears on the EU REACH Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC). It is commonly used in industrial processes, such as making glass, ceramics, and flame retardants, and can also be found in some household products like insecticides and wood preservatives. The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) regulates boric acid because it may harm fertility or cause harm to an unborn child, based on scientific studies. It is classified as a substance of very high concern due to these potential health effects, which means companies must inform consumers if their products contain it above certain levels. This does not mean all products with boric acid are dangerous, but it helps people make informed choices.
