According to Firmenich's Eco Ingredient Compass, Helvetolide contains over 50% renewable carbon – a figure that refers to the origin of the raw material and should be considered independently of the biodegradability of the finished molecule (see safety information).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSafety information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the current safety data sheet from Firmenich Grasse SAS (version 10.1, 19 Mar 2026), Helvetolide is classified under CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272\/2008 as: \u003cstrong\u003eAquatic Chronic 2, H411\u003c\/strong\u003e (toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects), pictogram GHS09.
