Safe and sustainable chemicals
The chemical industry is facing major changes to reduce its climate impact and create safe, circular flows. To achieve this, new processes and products are needed that are based on sustainable and renewable raw materials that are also safe for people and the environment.
We support companies in complying with legislation and authorities in controlling chemicals in the environment. We develop new knowledge about chemicals in our environment and have extensive experience in analysing hazardous substances and assessing health and environmental impacts. We calculate the dispersion of releases and use advanced technologies to measure and analyse substances in air, soil, biota and water.
We work to minimize both environmental problems and health issues caused by chemicals.

How IVL works with safe and sustainable chemicals
For many chemicals, the value chain is complex – from extraction of raw materials and production, to use in industrial processes and products, and ultimately, the environmental impacts of these. IVL works systematically with the development and risk assessment of products' chemical content, with the aim of minimizing environmental and health risks.
