VOC (volatile organic compounds) solvents are used in the manufacturing industry in a wide range of applications. The European-VOC Directive (1999/13 / EC of the Council of 11 March 1999) has brought about substantial changes in the use and application of organic solvents.

Documentations on subject-specific workshops as well as various measures and practical examples can be downloaded. An Excel tool is also available to establish the company-specific solvent balance and a reduction plan required by law. The tool is suitable for all solvent users in order to develop an internal solvent management plan and exploit economic and ecological opportunities.
