List of nano-pigments on the EU market

As part of a study commissioned by the European Union Observatory for Nanomaterials (EUON) to investigate the safe use of nano-sized pigments in consumer products, as well as their safety when used by professionals and workers, a list of nano-sized pigments currently known to be on the EU market was established. The list consists of 81 substances from the European Chemicals Agency's (ECHA's) chemicals database as well as publications by the Belgian and French national inventories, and the current EU catalogue of nanomaterials used in cosmetic products. Data from the Danish Product Register was also used. Click on the substance names in the list to get more information from ECHA's chemicals database. The EUON provides information about existing nanomaterials on the EU market. Whether you are developing policies in the area, a consumer or representing industry or a green NGO, the information on the EUON offers interesting reading about the safety, innovation, research and uses of nanomaterials. The EUON is funded by the European Commission. It is hosted and maintained by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA).
