| 释义 |
In the European Union, the Fixed Cut-Off Date (FCOD) Animal Testing Policy relates to the testing of ingredients used in the manufacture of cosmetics, toiletries and household products. A company’s FCOD is a date after which none of the ingredients in its products has been tested on animals.[1] The policy is recognised by animal welfare groups worldwide as the benchmark for cruelty free cosmetics / toiletries and household cleaning products because companies with a FCOD policy will not use any ingredient tested on animals after a specific date.[1] The FCOD Animal Testing Policy is endorsed by the Naturewatch Foundation and Cruelty Free International’s Leaping Bunny certification.[2] Companies holding the Leaping Bunny cosmetics and personal care certification are encouraged to use a fixed cut-off date of 11 March 2013, the date on which a full European Union ban on animal testing for cosmetics came into force.[3] Some companies are not endorsed by the Naturewatch Foundation even if they have a FCOD, because their parent company does not.[1] A Supplier Specific Boycott means a company has committed to only using suppliers that have no connection to animal testing at all and supply ingredients with a FCOD.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{Cite web|url=https://naturewatch.org/compassionate-shopping/faqs|title=FAQs - Naturewatch|website=naturewatch.org|access-date=2018-04-20}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.crueltyfreeinternational.org/LeapingBunnyFAQs|title=Leaping Bunny FAQs {{!}} Cruelty Free International|website=www.crueltyfreeinternational.org|access-date=2018-04-20}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-13-210_en.htm|title=European Commission - PRESS RELEASES - Press release - Full EU ban on animal testing for cosmetics enters into force|website=europa.eu|language=en|access-date=2018-04-20}} 1 : Animal testing |
