I have just been asked to look at some paint which contains a small quantity of nonylphenol. We have shied away from this product in the past because of its potential gender bender capabilities and the effect on aquatic life.
However, I have been looking at the new Regulations due to come in in January 2005 and seek clarification of whether paint is on the list of allowable processes for nonylphenol. I could not see it specifically but neither was it specifically excluded.
Can anyone shed some light on this for me please?

Posted By Heather Aston Hilary If you've not already seen it, this is a good place to start http://www.defra.gov.uk/...nsult/nonylphenol-trans/Paint is not listed in the Regs that transpose the EU Directive, however there is also a voluntary agreement applying in GB only - I didn't wade through it all, but it seems to be a bit more all-embracing.
