At present, many products in the market contain silver ions, such as silver ions anti-bacterial clothing, silver ions anti-bacterial mobile phone film, silver ions anti-bacterial wet wipes, etc. But a recent call from ECHA’s Biocidal Products Committee to refuse approval to three silver-containing active substances may change that.

In 2018, China’s national retail sales of cosmetics above the designated size was €33.8 billion, and in the first quarter alone of 2019, the retail of cosmetics has increased to €9.7 billion. For the imported cosmetics sector, the import value amounted to €8.5 billion, with a year-on-year increase of 67.5%, the import volume and amount of beauty products and skin care products in China continually increased in recent years.

However, the complicated pre-market entry process and changing policy, especially the complicated regulatory framework and the fast evolving retail and e-commerce infrastructure, are holding back foreign brands to this lucrative market.
