The tables in this Schedule replace some of the tables in the GHS.
2 Classification of mixtures containing respiratory sensitisers or skin sensitisers
The GHS applies as if the following table were substituted for Table 3.4.5 in Chapter 3.4 of the GHS—
Table 1—Classification of mixtures containing
respiratory sensitisers or skin sensitisers
Cut-off values/concentration limits of ingredients of a mixture classified as either a respiratory sensitiser or a skin sensitiser that would trigger classification of the mixture.

3 Classification of mixtures containing carcinogens
The GHS applies as if the following table were substituted for Figure 3.6.1 in Chapter 3.6 of the GHS—
Table 2—Classification of mixtures containing carcinogens
Cut-off values/concentration limits of ingredients of a mixture classified as a carcinogen that would trigger classification of the mixture.

Note 2 to Sch. 7 cl. 3 amended by S.R. No. 141/2020 reg. 9(a).
2 Category 1 carcinogen means Category 1A carcinogen or Category 1B carcinogen in the GHS.
4 Classification of mixtures containing reproductive toxicants
The GHS applies as if the following table were substituted for Figure 3.7.1 in Chapter 3.7 of the GHS—
Table 3—Classification of mixtures containing reproductive toxicants
Cut-off values/concentration limits of ingredients of a mixture classified as a reproductive toxicant or for effects on or via lactation that would trigger classification of the mixture.

Note 2 to Sch. 7 cl. 4 amended by S.R. No. 141/2020 reg. 9(b).
2 Category 1 reproductive toxicant means Category 1A reproductive toxicant or Category 1B reproductive toxicant in the GHS.
5 Classification of mixtures containing specific target organ toxicants (single exposure)
The GHS applies as if the following table were substituted for Figure 3.8.1 in Chapter 3.8 of the GHS—
Table 4—Classification of mixtures containing specific target organ toxicants (single exposure)
Cut-off values/concentration limits of ingredients of a mixture classified as a specific target organ toxicant that would trigger classification of the mixture.
Category 1Category 2
1 Category 1 specific target organ toxicant Concentration ≥10% 1·0% ≤ concentration <10%
2 Category 2 specific target organ toxicant Concentration ≥10%
The concentration limits in Table 4 apply to solids and liquids (w/w units) and gases (v/v units).
6 Classification of mixtures containing reproductive toxicants (repeated exposures)
The GHS applies as if the following table were substituted for Table 3.9.3 in Chapter 3.9 of the GHS—
Table 5—Classification of mixtures containing specific target organ toxicants (repeated exposure)
Cut-off values/concentration limits of ingredients of a mixture classified as a specific target organ toxicant that would trigger classification of the mixture.
Category 1Category 2
1 Category 1 specific target organ toxicant Concentration ≥10% 1·0% ≤ concentration < 10%
2 Category 2 specific target organ toxicant Concentration ≥10%
The concentration limits in Table 5 apply to solids and liquids (w/w units) and gases (v/v units).
