Listen to our #SaferChemicalsPodcast with MEP @martinhojsik. He tells us how the #EUGreenDeal and #ChemicalsStrategy will help pave the way to greener and #SaferChemicals and how he sees the role of #AlternativesToAnimalTesting in regulatory science.

How does the Candidate List protect you and the environment? #ChemicalsInOurLife

#ForeverChemicals #PFAS can still be found in everyday products. Five EU countries will send us a proposal to restrict them in 2022.

For their proposal, they now need input from industry to fill knowledge gaps. 🔗https://t.co/HT9CG8ImYX

2020 was quite a different year for all of us. Despite all the challenges faced, we at ECHA kept working hard for #SaferChemicals to protect European citizens and the environment. Our annual report lists the main achievements: https://t.co/hz1wOecNzu

Tattoo inks -one of the many files @EU_ENV & @EU_ECHA worked on.
This morning I joined @EU_ECHA management board to discuss the joint road ahead re the recent “strategy for sustainability, towards a toxic free environment “ adopted by @EU_Commission in October. 🤜🤛

@EU_ECHA’s host city, #Helsinki, is delightful, even before the snow and ice light up the dark winter. I was inspired by @myhelsinki, taking two seaside city walks this weekend.

We're surrounded by products treated with #biocides - children’s & sports clothing🧥, pool equipment🏊🏼‍♀️,etc.

An 🇪🇺enforcement project found that 1️⃣/3️⃣ of checked products are not labelled correctly🏷️🚫

Measures were taken to bring them into compliance.

[European Chemicals Agency - ECHA 🇪🇺 @EU_ECHA]

Products such as cosmetics💄, detergents🧼& the infill on artificial football pitches⚽can contain #microplastics that end up in our oceans🌊, freshwater & soil.

Our restriction proposal would reduce emissions by 5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ tonnes in the next 20 years.

#EUAgencies break down technical and regulatory barriers to bring Europe closer to citizens. Don’t miss this online event organised but @EMA_News about the #COVID vaccine on the way. This is a great example of how EU Agencies stay closer to citizens when we are most needed.
