  • Tracking substances of concern is vital for sustainability and competitiveness

    Over 40 concerned waste management, industry, and civil society organisations are urging EU leaders to uphold the commitment to chemical transparency and traceability. A stable policy environment is essential for investing in the phase-out of substances and gathering information for more traceability in value chains. Mandatory reporting on substances of concern will help to ensure a transparent and competitive economy.
