US Risk Characterization

As a member of the American Chemistry council (ACC) in the USA, AkzoNobel is committed to an international program, the Global Product Strategy (GPS), which is designed to improve product stewardship actions and to increase public awareness and confidence that chemicals in commerce are safely managed throughout their lifecycle. 

An important part of the AkzoNobel GPS program is completing risk characterizations for the chemicals it manufactures and imports, prioritizing chemical risks, recommending risk management actions where indicated, and making chemical health and safety information available to the public. [NOTE: The AkzoNobel GPS includes a number of product regulatory compliance programs (e.g., product safety for Material Safety Data Sheets and labels) that have been effectively functioning for many years.]
