Mississauga, Ontario - Intertek, a leading Total Quality Assurance provider to industries worldwide, can help companies comply with the California Environmental Protection Agency’s Air Resources Board (CARB) mandatory reporting requirements. 

All companies that manufacture, distribute, or sell personal care, household or industrial products in California must file information on their product ingredients and unit sales for 2013, 2014 and 2015 with CARB. Non-compliance with these reporting requirements could lead to fines, penalties and even a potential sales ban in California.

The Comprehensive data requirements include items such as:

  • Product Data
  • Formula Data
  • Container/Form Data
  • Fragrance Data
  • Kit Data
  • Labelling Data
  • Starter files for all previously completed CARB surveys 2013/2014 starter files (if 2014 survey was completed)

“The universal feedback from companies that have filed with CARB is that it is complex and inefficient, leading to a lot of time and effort investment – much more than anticipated” states Mr. Harvey Remz, Director of Scientific and Regulatory Affairs Consultancy for Health & Beauty Products within Health, Environment and Regulatory Services (HERS).  “We will be addressing the challenges faced by industry with the Intertek solution during our upcoming webinar.“

Intertek is pleased to partner with Ithos to present a complimentary webinar on June 22, at 10:00 am EDT. The topics to be covered include: An overview of CARB and the Consumer Products Survey; the industries impacted; data requirements; and the responsibilities & reporting process.
