Chemicals are important components in many of the products modern society uses and relies on. However, Chemicals of Concern may be released at any stage of the product life cycle resulting in potential exposures of humans and the environment, including from both newly produced products and products already present in society.
The purpose of the community of practice is to bring representatives from different sectors together and to create a learning network around issues related to Chemicals in Products (learn more about Chemicals in Products here).
Participants will discuss on topics that might include information in the supply chain on chemical presence and composition, circular economy, life cycle analysis, innovation.
