Many organizations have worked to define and describe sustainable chemistry or have developed principles for safety and sustainability for chemistry applications, including environmental justice principles centered around chemicals management.
This symposium brings together researchers, industry leaders, community advocates, and policymakers to examine how green chemistry can advance industrial infrastructure while improving public health.
Promoting Chemistry Applied to World Needs, our popular webinar series hosted in collaboration with IUPAC Chemrawn and Beyond Benign—Green Chemistry for a Sustainable Future, is back! Join us on April 9th at 10 a.m.
Everyone is talking about circularity. The challenge now is aligning around how it’s defined, measured, and applied in practice.
Cradle to Cradle Certified® is the leading multi-attribute standard used globally across industries by designers, brands and manufacturers to design and make products that are good for people and for the planet. The Cradle to Cradle Certified Product Standard (Full Scope) provides the framework to assess the circularity and sustainability performance of materials and products across five categories:
The 2025 Chemical Ventures Conference will focus on the future of sustainability in the chemical industry. This year’s event will focus on circularity, sustainability and resiliency of materials and chemicals across their entire life cycle—an essential conversation for innovators and investors.

Technical Program
Over 1,000 organisations from across the world, including businesses representing 20% of all plastic packaging produced globally and over 50 government signatories, have mobilised behind the Global Commitment’s common vision of a circular economy for plastic, in which it never becomes waste. Signatories set ambitious 2025 targets to help realise that common vision. This sixth annual progress report looks at how the signatories are faring against these targets and key lessons learned along the way.
EREF is one of the largest sources of private research funding in North America related to sustainable materials management. Our grants program has provided millions of dollars in funding to cutting edge research institutions to help address the many challenges that exist.
