FEICA Position Paper 'Adhesives are not Plastic' (public)
FEICA has published a position paper in the context of the PPWR regulation to clarify that adhesives do not need to comply to recycled content targets for plastics.

ASMoR recommendations on the Risk Management Option Analysis (RMOA)
Effective and modern chemicals management requires a balance of protection, competitiveness, and innovation. It must be dynamic to address emerging risks, whilst avoiding over-regulation. An effective Risk Management Option Analysis (RMOA) framework is essential for evaluating safe use options, analysing viable alternatives, and developing adequate risk management strategies. This approach optimises the workload for authorities and industry without compromising safety and innovation. This document covers this approach and ASMoR recommendations on RMOA.
FEICA is a member of the Alliance for Sustainable Management of Chemical Risk (ASMoR). The common goal of ASMoR's members is to ensure that safe uses of substances remain permitted.
