About

Thiophanate-methyl is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Thiophanate-methyl is a fungicide used in agriculture for disease control on crops. Under EU Cosmetic Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, pesticide residues and related substances are prohibited from cosmetic products. Additionally, thiophanate-methyl has been classified by ECHA as a suspected reproductive toxicant (Repr. 1B), placing it effectively outside acceptable cosmetic use. Any presence in cosmetic products would constitute a violation of EU regulatory requirements.
