In the BASTA system, it is the suppliers themselves that determine whether their products meet the criteria. We therefore place a number of formal quality requirements on all suppliers who join BASTA. Please feel welcome to sign our supplier agreement!
The database contains only those products that meet the properties criteria. You can search by product or supplier name, or use the advanced search. The database is freely available for everyone to use; the database can be accessed without a password or membership. Search the database using the search window on the right (only available in Swedish).
Properties criteria according to CLP
The BASTA and the BETA properties criteria are now available in two alternative sets - option 1 and option 2. Material Suppliers are free to choose which of the options to be used, but the supplier must then implement the choice consistently for all products in the system. Option 1 of the criteria are the existing criteria developed under Swedish classification rules (KIFS 2005:7) and can be used until 1 June 2015 during the transition to the European Regulation (CLP) in Sweden. Option 2 of the criteria are developed according to European Regulation (CLP). Note that since option 1 is the same as the existing criteria (for both BASTA and BETA), no extra work for you as a supplier is required since no changes in existing criteria have been taken place.
Adaptation of BASTA criteria - 2012
As a result of this change, the concentration limits of properties criteria 18a and 18b in the BASTA system are once again based on the substances L(E)C50 values as in the original wording of the criteria.

To clarify the suppliers' efforts to qualify their products for registration in the BASTA- and BETA- registers, a new document has been developed. The document contains both a workflow of how the qualification of products should be implemented step by step, and two tables that clarify how the qualification can be documented.
