| Résumé : |
Body artists in Europe may have to reconsider the pigments that they use in future, with the European Union (EU) drafting new rules that could regulate what chemicals can be used in tattoo inks. While today 12 out of every 100 Europeans are tattooed or have some sort of permanent cosmetic treatment, experts are increasingly concerned that these skin colouring agents may contain hazardous substances, known or suspected to have adverse health effects causing cancer, allergies or mutations. As a result, the EU executive, the European Commission has asked the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to investigate, evaluating whether EU consumers' health is actually under risk from tattoo insk and advising on whether EU legislation is necessary. "The EU is not (considering) banning tattoo inks or tattooing but aims to ensure that all substances present in tattoo inks are safe for citizens", a Commission spokesperson underlined. |
