To meet the charter element 2.3, 'We are inspired by Green Chemistry', the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) has developed the IFRA Green Chemistry Compass, a harmonized tool in a wider sustainability toolbox.
This Green Chemistry tool was developed by a team of fragrance industry subject matter experts in collaboration with Dr John Warner and education resources provider Beyond Benign.
The IFRA Green Chemistry Compass is intended to help manufacturers of fragrance ingredients of all sizes and in all geographies to integrate green chemistry principles across company platforms in the design of safer and more sustainable materials.
The IFRA Green Chemistry Compass is now ready to be tested by a wide range of users in an open and inclusive consultation.
IFRA is opening a public consultation on the IFRA Green Chemistry Compass, which will be open from 20 July to 20 October 2023. This link will appear here and on www.ifrafragrance.org.
Additionally, a webinar on the consultation is being held on 20 July 2023 from 13:00-14:00 CET. Registration is open: here.
