Chemical safety includes all the issues and actions needed to ensure the safe use of chemicals in different situations. Our members’ aim in the everyday operations is to ensure the correct use of products and applications throughout the entire product cycle. This means that our member companies must possess solid competencies and the ability for renewal in the constantly changing environment.

Chemicals are subject to extensive and broad legislation, which aims to control issues such as manufacture, handling, classification, packaging, documentation and transport. To achieve the approval of both customers and the entire society, mere following of orders is not enough. Voluntary, solutions are needed, too.

Chemical safety is in the core of the Federation’s environmental, health and safety expertise. Work based on professional, credible and solid stakeholder collaboration support the member companies in their efforts to develop their operations and competitiveness.
