Flammability guide: Update 2022
Static electricity is one of the main hazards associated with flammable solvents. Learn about the potential sources of static electricity and how to safely handle solvents in the workplace via our updated best practice guide. In June 2022, ESIG has updated the Flammability Guidelines to explain the main characteristics of solvent flammability and provide recommendations for safe handling and use.
Solvents and the Green Deal
ESIG presents its view on Green Claims.
Updated EMEP/EEA Air Pollutant Emission Inventory Guidebook includes a chapter on the use of ESIG Solvent VOC inventories (May 2022)
FOCUS: Trends in Solvents VOC emissions
This factsheet published in April 2020 and updated inQ1/2022 gives an overview of which solvents can be found in indoor air and explains why VOC solvents are still present in dedicated applications.
ESIG Solvent VOC emission inventories 2020
ESIG has finalised its 2020 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.
ESIG Solvent VOC emission inventories 2019
ESIG has finalised its 2019 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.
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.
VOCs and Indoor Air Quality
This updated technical paper from 2020 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.
