Demonstrating Bio-Attributed PVC for Industry Applications: Aligning with EU's SSbD Framework and Advancing Circular Economy Goals

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Extreme weather events are becoming more frequent and severe, causing significant human and economic losses. The climate crisis demands sustainable solutions, including the development of safe, lowimpact material. The Safe and Sustainable by Design framework, promoted by the European Commission, guides the innovation of chemicals and materials to minimize health and environmental risks throughout the product life cycle.
