Answering the Burning Questions: Chemical Regulations, Engineering Challenges, and the Future of Sustainable Flame Retardants
October 23, 2025 | 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT
We’re excited to announce an upcoming webinar that dives into one of the most pressing topics in materials innovation and regulatory strategy.
Featured Speaker:
Dr. Adrian Beard- Chairman of pinfa and Advocacy Manager at Clariant
Join us for a deep-dive discussion led by Dr. Adrian Beard, as we explore:
🔹 Who is pinfa? – Advocating for non-halogenated phosphorus, inorganic, and nitrogen flame retardants
🔹 ECHA’s Flame Retardants Strategy and next steps
🔹 Designing Safe and Sustainable-by-Design (SSbD) flame retardants
🔹 Flame retardants and PFAS: navigating complexity
🔹 Engineering challenges: higher voltages, thinner parts, and recyclability
This session will be especially valuable for teams working in sustainability, materials science, regulatory affairs, and product design.
Let’s stay ahead of the curve on sustainable innovation. We hope to see you there! For more information, contact Mark Schaffer ([email protected]).
