Chemical substances and health protection

Advice to the consumer

Many objects that we use in everyday life are composed of natural or synthetic chemicals.

If these substances are dangerous, the risks associated with its use by the consumer must be assessed.

The complexity of the problem cannot constitute an obstacle for the consumer who must be able to make his/her own choices with awareness, using the available information tools.

The label on the packaging that defines the composition and classification as well as the danger must be read carefully by the consumer.
