What Is TPD?
The Tobacco Products Directive (TPD ) sets out the rules for the sale and manufacture of e-cigarettes and e-liquids in the EU.
It came into effect in May 2016. Any product must be fully compliant with TPD regulations before it’s placed on the EU market.
The principle is to increase the health protection and awareness surrounding tobacco products.
The regulations ensure ingredients are tested before they’re sold to consumers and must be displayed on the packaging.

What is CLP?
The Classification, Labeling and Packaging (CLP) Regulation ((EC) No 1272/2008) is based on the United Nations’ Globally Harmonized System (GHS) and its purpose is to ensure a high level of protection of health and the environment, as well as the free movement of substances, mixtures and articles.
CLP is legally binding across the Member States and directly applicable to all industrial sectors.
It requires manufacturers, importers or downstream users of substances or mixtures to classify, label and package their hazardous chemicals appropriately before placing them on the market.
One of the main aims of CLP is to determine whether a substance or mixture displays properties that lead to a hazardous classification. In this context, classification is the starting point for hazard communication.
