Free from harmful substances
Chemical substances are used in various articles, from makeup to paint, and from toys to clothing. They can make our lives easier, for example, by ensuring that cream remains durable for a long time or that our rubber or plastic boots stay flexible.
Normally, when legislation is complied with, and you handle the product properly, the chemical substances in the end product are not hazardous to our health or the environment.
In some cases, there is a potential risk that certain chemical substances may still have a negative impact on the environment or our health. Through this theme, we highlight articles that provide an alternative to a similar type of product. The theme may be expanded at a later time.
