What is the CLP classification of thiacloprid (ISO)?

The harmonised classification for CAS 111988-49-9 carries 7 hazard statements: H351, H360FD, H332, H301, H336, H400, H410. In plain terms this means suspected of causing cancer; may damage fertility and the unborn child; harmful if inhaled; toxic if swallowed. A harmonised entry is binding across the Union — an importer may not soften it, and a self-classification that diverges from it will not survive an enforcement check.

Storage and handling in the document

Storage requirements for thiacloprid must be addressed in Section 7 and should align with Section 10, which outlines prohibited conditions and materials. If discrepancies arise between the two sections, the documentation is considered internally inconsistent, and a laboratory auditor will deem both sections unreliable.

What Annex VI notes and concentration limits apply to thiacloprid (ISO)?

The register also records M = 100;M = 100 for this entry. Specific concentration limits, M-factors and acute toxicity estimates override the generic cut-off values, so a mixture calculation that ignores them will classify the mixture wrongly in both directions.

Can I import thiacloprid (ISO) into the EU?

Introducing thiacloprid (ISO) into the Union requires documentation to be prepared prior to logistics arrangements. The documentation file must already be available at the time of import, not merely upon request; for this purpose, heterocyclic compounds is evaluated within the context of active-ingredient and intermediate imports. Index 613-[CAS?] establishes the classification that Section 2 must mirror accordingly.

Documentation demand on the EU market

CAS 111988-49-9 has a recorded presence on the European trading market, which means documentation for it is requested routinely rather than exceptionally. Substances that move in commerce attract repeat scrutiny: the same sheet is read by successive customers, carriers and authorities, and a defect that survives the first reading rarely survives the tenth.

What concentration limits apply to thiacloprid (ISO)?

M-factor on record: 100. The M-factor multiplies the contribution of this substance in the aquatic hazard calculation for a mixture, which is where it is most often overlooked.

What is the EC number for thiacloprid (ISO)?

Alongside CAS 111988-49-9, this substance carries EC number – and Annex VI index 613-[CAS?]. European documentation is built around the EC number as often as around the CAS: registration dossiers, the candidate list and customs systems key on it. A safety data sheet quoting only one of the two forces every downstream reader to look up the other.

Which GHS pictograms apply to thiacloprid (ISO)?

The label for thiacloprid carries GHS06 (skull and crossbones), GHS08 (health hazard), GHS09 (environment), with the signal word Danger. These are not chosen by the supplier: CLP Annex VI states them for CAS 111988-49-9, and the precedence rules in Annex I decide which pictogram is dropped when two would say the same thing. A label showing a different set from the register is wrong even if every hazard statement on it is correct.

Accidental release and containment

Section 6 addresses the accidental release of thiacloprid, outlining personal precautions, environmental precautions, and containment methods. When the classification indicates an aquatic hazard, the environmental precautions section transitions from a mere formality to a critical instruction that must be rigorously followed.

Is thiacloprid (ISO) classified as a CMR substance?

CAS 111988-49-9 is classified as a CMR substance (H360FD). That status changes the obligations attached to every shipment: workplace exposure documentation, restrictions on supply to the general public, and substitution pressure from downstream users who must justify continued use. A safety data sheet for a CMR substance is read more closely than any other, because the classification itself invites scrutiny.

Where is regulatory status recorded for thiacloprid (ISO)?

Regulatory status for thiacloprid changes independently of its hazard classification. A substance can keep the same hazard profile for years and acquire new obligations in section 15, which is why that section dates faster than section 2.

Which SDS sections decide whether a shipment clears?

The sheet for CAS 111988-49-9 must be read numerically rather than narratively; subsections carry the same weight as sections: an inspector seeking information under point 3.1 will not accept data presented within a paragraph elsewhere, regardless of that paragraph’s completeness. Completeness is initially assessed by structure, followed by content evaluation.

Stability, reactivity and incompatibilities

Section 10 documents the stability and reactivity of thiacloprid, outlining specific conditions to be avoided, incompatible materials, and hazardous decomposition products. Laboratories refer to this section prior to storing two substances together on the same shelf to ensure compatibility and safety.

Identifiers that must agree

CAS 111988-49-9 and index number 613-[CAS?] are not interchangeable and not decorative. The index number ties the entry to the harmonised classification; the CAS number ties it to the chemical literature. A file carrying one without the other forces every reader to reconstruct the link, and reconstruction is where errors enter.

First-aid content and why it is read first

Section 4 covers first-aid measures for thiacloprid by route of exposure: inhalation, skin, eye and ingestion, each answered separately. Generic advice to ‘seek medical attention’ in all four is the most common defect, and it is the one that matters at the moment somebody needs the sheet.

How is thiacloprid (ISO) classified for road, sea and air transport?

Transport classification for thiacloprid sits in section 14 and differs by mode: ADR for road, IMDG for sea, IATA for air. A sheet that prints all three without stating which applies leaves the shipper to choose, and the shipper is the one penalised for choosing wrong.

What must the label for thiacloprid (ISO) contain?

The supply label for thiacloprid (ISO) is generated from the same classification that drives the safety data sheet: pictograms selected by precedence, one signal word derived from the highest hazard class present, and the hazard statements H351, H360FD, H332… reproduced in full. Where the container is too small to carry the complete set at a legible size, there are lawful ways to handle it and unlawful ones that look identical to a non-specialist.

How do I check if my SDS for thiacloprid (ISO) is still valid?

If a sheet for thiacloprid (ISO) is already in circulation, the useful first question is not whether to replace it but whether it is wrong, and if so in which section. Defects repeat across a catalogue, so three documents usually reveal what three hundred need.

Questions about documentation for thiacloprid

Do I need a safety data sheet to import thiacloprid into the EU?

Yes. A sheet compiled to Annex II of REACH must exist before the first consignment moves, and it must be held by the entity placing the substance on the Union market.

What is the CAS number of thiacloprid?

CAS 111988-49-9. In CLP Annex VI the same substance carries index number 613-[CAS?], and both identifiers should appear in the documentation.

Is thiacloprid a CMR substance?

Yes. The harmonised classification places it among substances classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic for reproduction, which changes workplace documentation and supply restrictions.

What hazard statements apply to CAS 111988-49-9?

The harmonised entry lists H351, H360FD, H332, H301. These are binding across the Union and may not be softened by a self-classification.
