It offers basic information on how nanomaterials are regulated in various areas, such as work environment, chemicals and cosmetics. You can also read about research on environment, health and safety aspects of nanomaterials. The site includes a knowledge bank, Q&As, a calendar and links to other sources of safety information mainly in Sweden and Europe.
