Guidance for safe and sustainable chemicals and materials published

28/10/2022

Earlier this week, 26th of October, the European Commission published a Strategic Research and Innovation Plan (SRIP) to accelerate the shift to safe and sustainable chemicals and materials. In order to boost the protection of people and the planet against hazardous substances, the SRIP highlights crucial research and innovation needs for this transition and guides funders in their investments.

In addition to listing the research and innovation needs for the whole life cycle of such chemicals and materials, SRIP also provides guidance on how to make the most of such R&I activities. The aim is to encourage and guide funders in EU, national and private financial programmes. It reflects the priorities of authorities, scientists and companies alike.

Mariya Gabriel Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, said:

Protecting people and the planet calls for a strategic approach. We can harness a big economic opportunity by focusing on safe and sustainable chemicals and materials. European industry can gain a competitive advantage and win consumers' confidence by investing in such innovative solutions.

The Commission will refer to the SRIP in the upcoming Horizon Europe work programme 2023-2024 expected to be adopted before the end of the year, as an overarching strategy. In order to maximize SRIP's impact the Commission sets out a monitoring scheme for its implementation.

The zero-pollution ambition for a toxic-free environment is one of the four interlinked policy goals of the European Green Deal. Underlining the role of research and innovation the Commission recently published a report on how Horizon 2020 project results help us to preserve biodiversity, while keeping land, water and air clean.
