Cut-off values

The following cut-off values apply to the assessment: — for H420,H400, H410: 0,1 % — for H411,H412, H413: 1 %. An individual substance present at a concentration below the cut-off, for a hazard statement code assigned to it, is not included in the sum of the concentrations for that hazard class and category code. Hazard Class and Category Code(s) Hazard statement Code(s) Description Concentration limit (Individual substance or sum of substances) Ozone 1 H420 Harms public health and the environment by destroying ozone in the upper atmosphere ≥ 0,1 % Aquatic Acute 1 H400 Very toxic to aquatic life ≥ 25 % Aquatic Chronic 1 H410 Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects ≥ 0,25 % Aquatic Chronic 2 H411 Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects ≥ 2,5 % Aquatic Chronic 3 H412 Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects ≥ 25 % Aquatic Chronic 4 H413 May cause long lasting harmful effects to aquatic life ≥ 25 % Figure 19 sets out the assessment process for HP 14.
