2025-03-27

Executive Summary:
With Ambroxide officially added to the REACH SVHC Candidate List (29th update) in January 2024, non-compliant purchases could lead to €50,000+ penalties per shipment. This guide decodes critical compliance thresholds and provides actionable strategies for global fragrance buyers.





Part 1: Key Regulatory Changes

 

Concentration Limits: cetaloxcontent in finished products must be <0.1% (w/w)

 

 

Documentation Mandates: Full disclosure of isomeric purity (e.g., ≥98% (-)-Ambroxide) in SDS

 

 

Case Study: A Spanish perfumery faced 120-day customs detention due to undeclared solvent residues in Ambroxide

 




Part 2: 3-Step Compliance Framework

Step 1: Supplier Pre-Qualification
✓ Demand ISO 16128:2023 certification with botanical origin traceability
✓ Require GC-MS batch analysis reports (Focus: Phthalates & Dioxane residuals)

Step 2: Logistics Safeguards
▶ Use UN-certified corrosion-resistant containers with real-time IoT sensors
▶ Obtain SCIP database ID from freight forwarders before shipment

Step 3: Cost-Efficient Contingency Planning

 

Bulk purchasing alliances (e.g.,Odowell biobased Ambroxane )
