Stricter controls and standards have been set, which have added a new dimension to business. Resources have been directed towards pollution control and prevention rather than just clean-up, effecting not only management, but also product development and promotion. Environmental costs have increasingly grained recognition and businesses like coatings, ink and adhesives have begun to realise that good environmental performance can contribute to maintaining a competitive edge in the market place. The competent authorities around the world have grasped this concept and all agree tostate that a clean environment is not only a precondition for sustainable development, but it is also essential to achieve prosperity and success in the world market. Economic growth and environmental protection are not incompatible but rather components of the same goal : A safe and secure future. This paper adresses some of the key environmental issues for RadCure products and other coatings which are currently being addressed by the European EPA (Enforcement of the 7th Amendment of Council Directive 67/548/EEC, Existing Chemicals Program, Risk Assesment Directive, OECD Polymer Definition and current regularotory developments, e.g further extension of EC Directive 90/128 governing food contact applications, environmental labelling). Some issues which need to be looked at from a global prospective will also be reviewed.

Radiation curing : Health, safety and environment aspects / Philippe Chatton in EUROPEAN COATINGS JOURNAL (ECJ), N° 5/96 (05/1996)

[article]  inEUROPEAN COATINGS JOURNAL (ECJ) > N° 5/96 (05/1996) . - p. 307-309 Titre : Radiation curing : Health, safety and environment aspects Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Philippe Chatton, Auteur Année de publication : 1996 Article en page(s) : p. 307-309 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 667.9 Revêtements et enduits Résumé : Health and environmental issues do not only affect the competitiveness of the chemical industry in Europe, but also restrict the free trade of products and technologies due to the lack of harmonisation of legislation around the world. The paper covers European (EU) regulatory aspects relevant to RadCure products, such as the implementation of the 7th Amendment of Council Directive 67/548/EEC (Existing Chemicals Programme, Risk Assessment Directive, OECD polymer definition,...) and current regulatory developments (further extension of EC Directive 90/128 governing food contract applications, environmental labelling). The paper will also describe the strategy developed by European chemical suppliers within the RadTech association to comply with EU Directives. Emphasis will be put on topics which should be addressed globally and for which global harmonisation should be sought. This is a key step for the global introduction of new products and technologies at an acceptable cost, which is essential for the long-term sustainability of the RadCure and coating industries.
