Implementing Responsible Care® for a Responsible Production and Use of Nanomaterials

26 February 2008

The German chemical industry is highly committed to contribute to a sustainable and responsible development of nanomaterial applications under the core principles and commitments of the Responsible Care Global Charter of the International Council of Chemical Associations (ICCA).

Responsible Care is the global chemical industry’s health, safety and environmental initiative to drive continuous improvement in performance. It achieves this objective by meeting and going beyond legislative and regulatory compliance, and by adopting cooperative and voluntary initiatives with government and other stakeholders. Responsible Care is both an ethic and a commitment that seeks to build confidence and trust in an industry that is essential to improving living standards and the quality of life.
