CEN/WS 118
Absorbent hygiene products - Test methods for analyzing trace chemicals

The planned CEN Workshop specifies a test method to analyze trace chemicals, suitable to test the trace chemicals that authorities and stakeholders are closely monitoring and that are included in the EDANA CODEX™. The CEN Workshop does not plan to describe product safety requirements. Limit values are not going to be defined in the CEN Workshop Agreement. The focus will be on defining a unified test method. The test method can be used as a basis for identifying and assessing trace chemicals, which can also be used as a basis for defining limits. The planned CEN Workshop is intended to be used by manufacturers (producers), authorities, retailers and other stakeholders, as NGO’s and consumer associations.
