• • Claims: Controls will be continued on value-adding claims, with a stronger focus on environmental claims.
• Nanomaterials : Whatever the applicable definition, there will be a focus on compliance with particle size thresholds and on the use of unauthorised nanomaterials, particularly dyes.
• Sunscreens: the controls will cover all points of the regulation of sunscreen products (nanomaterials, claims, but also sun protection factors, PIF…).
• Product Information File: This investigation aims in particular to take into account some of the recurrent findings of the DGCCRF, all themes taken together, which point to numerous non-compliances of the PIF with the regulations.
