The present draft legislation stems from Article 321 of the State Budget Law, which is aimed at a very specific set of products for which there is no provision for a ban on placing on the market, but rather the replacement of some of its components with alternatives identified and recognised as having less significant impacts on the environment.
This draft legislation prohibits the placing on the market of cosmetic products, hygiene products, detergents and cleaning products containing plastic microspheres consisting of synthetic particles of less than 5 millimetres in diameter.
