Major EU initiative launched to accelerate the transition to safe and sustainable materials, products and processes

To ensure that materials are sustainable for humans and the environment, to increase recycling and use resources in a more efficient way, efforts are required from an early stage of design and manufacturing. Thus, the EC has launched a major initiative, IRISS, which will accelerate the transition to safe and sustainably designed materials, products and processes. The consortium, led by IVL, will create a global network of experts and stakeholders. Six value chains represented in the project will provide a clear picture of the industry’s ongoing and future transformation.

BNN (BioNanoNet Forschungsgesllschaft mbH) is in charge of leading the workpackage designed for Communication, Dissemination and Consultation support of IRISS.
