Analysing microplastics is a complex analytical challenge that SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS and its experienced team of experts are ready to take on.
Working in low-particle laboratory areas such as the laminar flow box and the documentation of blank values are part of our self-evident quality standard.
With these comprehensive analysis methods and high quality standards, SGS INSTITUT FRESENIUS contributes to the precise identification of microplastics.
The EU Commission has adopted stricter measures to limit microplastics in products in accordance with the REACH regulation. The regulation covers synthetic polymer particles under 5 mm in size.
The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has now proposed the restriction of microplastics in fertilisers, pesticides, cosmetic products, cleaning agents and paints.
Microplastics under observation: The European Union is planning to add microplastics to the watch list to ensure that drinking water is safe for human health at all times.
