The LBC Watch List and the LBC Priority List create a transparent on-ramp for the LBC Red List. The current LBC Red List CASRN Guide (scroll to bottom) contains these lists.
Adding chemicals or chemical classes to the LBC Watch List signals that ILFI is considering their future inclusion in the LBC Red List. The Watch List does not impact a product’s Declaration Status nor the ability of LBC project teams to use products that contain these chemicals.
Substances on the Watch List may graduate to the Priority List if ILFI intends to add them to the Red List in the near future. A chemical must be designated as “Priority” for at least 12 months before it can be added to the Red List. A chemical designated as Priority for Red List Inclusion will be flagged in light orange on a Declare label but does not impact the product’s Declaration Status.
Stakeholder dialogue about whether and how to move substances between the Watch, Priority, and Red Lists is welcome. Questions and comments about specific chemicals and classes can be sent to declare.support@living-future.org. Other ways to engage include applying to our Material Health Technical Advisory Group – email tech.advisory@living-future.org.
