Andrea PORCARI, Airi- Italian Association for Industrial Research

The safety and sustainability of chemicals and materials and their applications are a cornerstone of current EU policy and industrial strategies. Frameworks and criteria for the practical implementation of SSbD approaches have been published by the OECD, European Commission, and industrial actors, such as CEFIC. These will increasingly become premium aspects to access funding and contracts and are a prerequisite to developing products aiming to fulfil sustainable development goals. The workshop, organized within the NanoInnovation Conference, will showcase experiences and activities at the European level on the development of advanced materials following the Safe and Sustainable by Design approach in key industrial sectors: chemical, plastics, cosmetics, textile, aeronautical, and automotive. Case studies and exploitable results from the European Projects: ASINA, SABYDOMA, SAbyNA, and SbD4Nano will be presented, together with foreseen activities from the REPOXYBLE project. Strategies for deployment and exploitation of SSbD methods, processes, and products developed by these projects will be discussed with players and industrial stakeholders. The workshop is open to both innovators and risk managers in research organizations, companies, institutions, and other organizations active and interested in the safety and sustainability of advanced materials, nanomaterials, and related products.

ASINA (GA 862444), SABYDOMA (GA 862296), SAbyNA (GA 862419), SbD4Nano (GA 862195), REPOXYBLE (GA 101091891), have received funding from European HORIZON Research and Innovation Programme.
