The Consumer Specialty Products Association (CSPA) has released the First Update of its Consumer Product Ingredient Dictionary. The update includes all the information that was in the First Edition, released December 2009, with the addition of 294 trade names, creation of eight new monographs and numerous amendments to existing monographs.
The Dictionary was developed to standardize and define ingredient nomenclature for companies engaging in the industry’s voluntary Consumer Product Ingredient Communication Initiative. The dictionary establishes consistent nomenclature of CSPA names for the Initiative that are clear, simple and accurate.Because one ingredient can have several names due to the differing nomenclature used for various product lines, it is important to provide consistency so that companies participating in the Initiative are using the most common ingredient name.
The First Edition CD of the CSPA Consumer Product Ingredient Dictionary remains available for purchase at www.cspa.org under Publication Orders.It is available to both CSPA members and non-members under either a single-user license or corporate-use license.The Dictionary now includes 279 Ingredient Monographs defining 803 trade names for 40 suppliers.
