ECHA notes that some provisions introduced by Regulation (EU) 2024/2865 were intended to apply from July 1, 2026, with a transitional period until July 1, 2028 for substances and mixtures already on the market.
Subsequently, Regulation (EU) 2025/2439, published on December 3, 2025, mandated a further postponement of certain application dates, within the framework of an intervention aimed at reconsidering specific requirements, particularly those linked to certain labeling aspects.
It is important, however, to avoid a simplistic reading of this postponement. The deferral of some deadlines does not equate to a general suspension of the adaptation process. The CLP revision remains fully in force, and companies must continue to monitor the effects of the new provisions on product classification, labeling, and, consequently, on the accompanying technical documentation, including Safety Data Sheets.

From an organizational perspective, the postponements should be interpreted as a useful window for planning adaptations more methodically, not as a reason to postpone all verification activities. Companies that wait until the final deadline without having started a preliminary analysis of their product portfolio risk concentrating complex activities into too tight a timeframe, with a consequent increase in the risk of errors and inconsistencies.
In a regulatory framework like the current one, the effective management of SDS therefore requires a proactive approach: following the transitional provisions, understanding which products are affected, and preparing the necessary documentary realignments in due time. This is the difference between a purely formal adaptation and a genuinely solid management of chemical compliance.
