What does TPO stand for in nail products? | Insights by VENDEENI
Explore the significance of TPO in nail products, its health implications, upcoming EU regulations, and how to transition to TPO-free alternatives for safer nail care.
Understanding TPO in Nail Products: Essential Knowledge for Nail Gel Polish Professionals
As a professional in the nail gel polish industry, staying informed about the components of your products is crucial. One such component is TPO, or Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide. This article delves into what TPO is, its role in nail products, health considerations, upcoming regulatory changes, and how to transition to TPO-free alternatives.
What Is TPO and Its Role in Nail Products?
TPO is a photoinitiator commonly used in UV-curable nail products like gel polishes. It facilitates the curing process under UV or LED light, ensuring quick and complete hardening of the product. This results in durable and glossy finishes, making TPO a preferred choice for many manufacturers.
Health Implications of TPO
Recent studies have raised concerns about the safety of TPO in nail products. Research indicates that TPO may cause skin sensitization, leading to allergic contact dermatitis. Additionally, prolonged exposure has been linked to potential reproductive toxicity and carcinogenic effects. These findings have prompted regulatory bodies to reassess the safety of TPO in cosmetic products.
Upcoming EU Regulations on TPO
In response to health concerns, the European Union has reclassified TPO as a CMR (carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic to reproduction) substance. Consequently, starting September 1, 2025, TPO will be banned in cosmetic products within the EU. This regulation aims to enhance consumer safety by eliminating potentially harmful substances from nail products.
Transitioning to TPO-Free Alternatives
To comply with the upcoming regulations and prioritize consumer health, many manufacturers are reformulating their products to exclude TPO. Alternatives such as Ethyl Trimethylbenzoyl Phenylphosphinate and Trimethylbenzoyl Ditolylphosphine Oxide are being adopted. These substitutes offer similar curing efficiency without the associated health risks. Brands like Akzéntz® have already begun shipping TPO-free products to the EU market, ensuring compliance with the new regulations.
