Every European cosmetic, detergent or paint formulator applying for the EU Ecolabel runs into the same wall. The reference document — the Detergent Ingredients Database (DID list) — is organized partly by chemical family and partly by substance, with no clear guidance on which is which. Formulators work from CAS numbers on their Safety Data Sheets; the Ecolabel criteria refer to DID entries. The bridge between the two exists nowhere officially. Each company ends up rebuilding its own mapping, inconsistently, dossier after dossier.
