pinfa’s webinar, with 140 participants confirms that EU Green Deal sustainability initiatives will strongly impact fire safety. Participants represented a wide range of industries, including chemicals, plastics, energy, transports, construction, as well as researchers and fire safety experts. Discussions emphasised the challenges of addressing new fire safety challenges, such as batteries, composite materials and changing lifestyles, whilst ensuring sustainable, safe and recyclable flame retardant materials and consumer products.
Online consultations of webinar participants showed that a very large majority consider that Green Deal policies and the new EU Chemicals Strategy will significantly impact choices in flame retardant chemistry. “No-hazard”, “low-toxic”, “recyclable” and “environmentally friendly” showed as shared keywords.
