Denmark Intends to Create Database of Products Containing Nanomaterials

Under a draft amendment to the Danish Chemicals Act, the Minister of the Environment would have the authority to write a detailed order, establishing the rules for a national database of mixtures and articles containing or releasing nanomaterials. See http://www.mim.dk/Nyheder/20120917_nano.htm

The order would also require producers and importers to report products containing or releasing nanomaterials. The information in the database is intended to form the basis of an evaluation of whether the content of nanomaterials in products on the Danish market poses a risk for consumers and the environment. The Ministry plans for the first reports to be due in early 2014.
