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. This document gives you an overview of all the tools (videos, posters, guidelines etc.) that we have developed to help downstream users comply with the highest level of health, safety and environmental standards.
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.The next sessions will take place on 20th and 21st November in Rotterdam (NL).
Solutions Newsletter – Summer 2019
Topics: Solvents Award, relaunch of the downstream user platform, measuring solvent vapour concentrations, good practices in OSH, training course, air quality, and specific release categories
Solvents Generic Exposure Scenarios (GES) under REACH
ESIG published an article in the June 2019 edition of the European Coatings Journal on its Generic Exposure Scenarios (GES), which are THE solvents industry standard in Europe today to ensure REACH compliance through the supply chain.
Solvents and air quality
Discover how ESIG has engaged since its formation in 1996 in furthering the scientific and technical understanding on solvents and air quality contributing to reduce solvents’ VOC emissions.
Solutions Newsletter – Winter 2018
Topics: generic exposure scenario tools, experimental assessment of exposure during spraying activities, LCA data to define product environmental footprints, ESIG Solvents Award, SPERCS background, industry facts and figures, solvents training
