Join the Movement to ban PFAS
ChemSec.org
ChemSec.org – the International Chemical Secretariat headquartered in Sweden – is an independent non-profit organization that advocates for substitution of toxic chemicals to safer alternatives. These substances represent one of the biggest and most serious threats to our health and environment. And because change is possible, their independent research, cross-border collaboration and practical tools, are driving the development of more progressive chemicals legislation and pushing businesses towards the transition to non-toxic alternatives.
