NATRUE to speak at Global Cosmetics Regulations 2026 on green claims and the ECGT Directive

NATRUE is pleased to announce that Dr. Wilfried Petersen, Senior Scientific Consultant at NATRUE, will speak at Global Cosmetics Regulations 2026, a one-day virtual conference hosted by Chemical Watch Events & Training by Enhesa on 24 November 2026.

The conference brings together regulators, industry representatives and experts to discuss the main legislative changes affecting how chemicals are managed and restricted in cosmetics worldwide, and how companies can prepare.

Green Claims under scrutiny: What the ECGT directive means for cosmetics

In his session, Wilfried will look at the EU Empowering Consumers for the Green Transition (ECGT) Directive, which has applied across the EU since 27 September 2026. The Directive introduces stricter rules on environmental claims and sustainability labels, with significant implications for the cosmetics industry.

The presentation will cover:

• What’s changing: key requirements and restrictions on environmental claims and sustainability labels;
• What it means for the cosmetics industry;
• The role of substantiation, transparency and independent certification in credible sustainability communication.

The session is part of Session 5, “The Future of Cosmetic Safety”, which closes the conference with a panel discussion on what comes next for the sector.
