ESIG Solvent VOC emission inventory 2018
ESIG has finalised its 2018 solvent volatile organic compounds (VOC) emission inventories and results do seem in line with previous numbers: Solvent VOC emissions have stabilized in the EU28 since 2008 staying at just under 2000 ktonnes.
FOCUS: Solvents and VOCs
This factsheet published in April 2020 gives an overview of which solvents can be found in indoor air and explains why VOC solvents are still present in dedicated applications. A technical paper published at the same time shows the industry’s commitment to reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and improving indoor air quality.
FOCUS: Solvents and ESIG
This Factsheet gives an overview of what solvents are, which solvents are in ESIG’s portfolio, for which applications they are used and how they are regulated in the EU.
ESIG and the solvents industry
This Factsheet explains the role of the European Solvents Industry Group (ESIG).
Overview “Solvents at Work”
The Solvents@Work campaign is part of our continuous effort to encourage responsible and safe handling of solvents.

Solvents trainings
ESIG is organising in cooperation with the Solvents Industry Association (SIA), the UK based solvents industry association, trainings sessions for its members as well as non-members. Due to the COVID-19 crisis, ESIG has decided to cancel all the trainings scheduled in 2020. They will resume as soon as the sanitary situation allows it.
