    Laundry Packet Safety Standard Group Reviews New Data, Researchers Note Progress

    At a recent meeting of stakeholders involved in ASTM International, a global standards organization, researchers shared data and expressed progress related to a 2015 safety standard for labeling and packaging laundry packets, an increasingly popular consumer product.

    This summer, the group (known as the subcommittee on liquid laundry packets) reviewed two analyses that tracked total number of exposures, rate of exposures adjusted for the population of children under six, and the rate of exposures adjusted for sales volume. The analyses covered a five-and-a-half-year timeline.

    One analysis, based on National Poison Data System data, showed that exposures increased through the transition period but began decreasing in 2017. The Rocky Mountain Poison and Drug Center, which analyzed the NPDS data, also found a significant drop in clinically significant outcomes, including severe medical outcomes, in the population- and sales-adjusted rates of exposures over the study period. The center also noted a drop in observed exposures for children under two.

    The second analysis was conducted by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission using National Electronic Injury Surveillance System data. The agency did not find improvements in absolute number of estimated emergency department visits between the baseline and post-implementation period but found significant declines in hospitalization and sales-adjusted emergency department visits.

    The subcommittee, which includes regulators, industry, consumer groups, and others, has met regularly since the 2015 approval of the standard (designated F3159). Reducing the risk of accidental ingestion by children has been the group’s primary focus in these meetings.

    As a result of the June 12 discussions, the subcommittee formed a task force to examine additional measures to reduce accidental exposures.
