Next Thursday, 6 February, Beauty Cluster Barcelona will be hosting a training session on the regulation of beauty equipment and products. This workshop, aimed at beauty professionals and, in particular, those who operate the equipment, will feature two speakers from the GTF team: the director, Mercè Camps, and Joaquin Gómez Abril, a consultant with the firm and Technical Manager at the Notified Body KIWA.
The new European regulations on medical devices have brought about a number of changes for those who run beauty salons, as well as for those who operate the equipment on a daily basis (pressotherapy machines, laser hair removal machines, etc.).
With the approval of the new Regulation 745/2017 on Medical Devices, a number of significant changes are being introduced for beauty salons. To ensure these are implemented correctly, it is essential to be familiar with the new regulations governing the sector, both in terms of the use of beauty equipment and products, and in relation to those businesses involved in their import and distribution.
Remember: Correct implementation and compliance with the legal framework are of fundamental importance.
