PAK Regulation

(EU) 1272/2013 and AfPS GS 2014:01 (PAK)

PAKs are understood to be "polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons", which primarily perform the function of plasticizers. The PAK Regulation (EU) 1272/2013 aims to restrict the use of these substances. The regulation sets different limits depending on the user groups and the duration of contact.
The test specification AfPS GS 2019:01 (PAKs) was identified by the German Product Safety Committee as a possible implementation of the Product Safety Act with regard to the hazards posed by PAKs. It goes beyond the requirements of the PAK EU Regulation. 


Important notes on this guideline / PAK regulation compact:

  • The PAK Regulation was last updated in 2015 (as of January 2021).
  • Waste List Regulation PAK: The Waste List Regulation (AVV) regulates whether a waste material is classified as hazardous or non-hazardous. If you have any questions on this topic, please do not hesitate to contact our team.
  • PAK CLP Regulation: Annex 6 of the CLP Regulation currently (as of January 2021) contains eight PAKs that are classified as carcinogenic according to category 1B. Further information? please contact us!
