Where BREEAM material emission criteria reference Category 1A and Category 1B carcinogens, these classifications are based on the EU CLP Regulation.
However, where a certification scheme or testing body does not work directly to EU CLP classifications, other recognised authoritative carcinogen classification systems may be accepted as an alternative basis for carcinogen identification. This can include:
• International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
• California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA)
