Topic 1: Interpretation of China's main national GHS standard – GB 30000.1-2024 Specifications for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals.

On July 24, GB 30000.1-2024 "Specifications for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals - Part 1: General Rules" was officially released, and the full text of this standard was published at the end of August.

GB 30000.1-2024 replaces GB 13690-2009 "General Rule for Classification and Hazard Communication of Chemicals". This marks the second revision of this standard since its initial publication in 1992, and it will be mandatory starting from August 1, 2025.

Against this backdrop, to aid companies in comprehensively interpreting the historical journey of this regulatory update, CIRS Group is pleased to launch this presentation to deliver expert insights and practical guidance. The updating of this standard signifies further enhancement of national GHS regulations and hints at the direction of future regulatory updates. With this will come the updating of a complementary series of GHS standards, so stay tuned for more developments!
