Alcance y aplicabilidad

This standard applies to the labeling of oral care and cleansing products sold within the People's Republic of China. It covers products such as toothpaste, oral care liquids, tooth powder, and oral gels. It is mandatory for all manufacturers and importers targeting the Chinese market. It does not apply to industrial or non-consumer oral care chemicals.

Requisitos técnicos

The standard specifies the terminology, form, basic requirements, and labeling content for oral care products. Most clauses are mandatory, with only sections 6.8 and 6.9 being recommended. Labels must be truthful, clear, and use standard Chinese characters, with specific font size requirements for packaging exceeding 20cm². Key mandatory labeling elements include the product name reflecting its true attributes, the legally registered producer's name and address, and net content. For imported products, the country of origin and the Chinese agent/importer details must be clearly marked in Chinese. The standard requires a complete ingredient list introduced by the term "Ingredients:". Ingredients must be listed in descending order of addition amount, with those at or below 1% allowed to be listed in any order after the >1% ingredients. Ingredient names should align with the International Cosmetic Ingredient Chinese Nomenclature where possible. Additionally, the shelf life must be clearly indicated either as production date plus shelf life, or production batch number plus expiration date. Specific warning labels are required for certain products, such as fluoride-containing items which must state the fluoride content and include child usage warnings.

Métodos de ensayo

While this standard primarily focuses on labeling rather than physical testing, it includes a normative appendix (Appendix A) detailing the calculation method for the maximum surface area of packaging containers. This calculation is essential for determining the minimum font size requirements and applicable labeling exemptions for various packaging shapes (e.g., rectangular, cylindrical).
