CTPA is publishing a position paper ‘Moving Towards Animal-free Chemical Safety Assessment – Overarching Principles’, on the overarching principles for moving towards animal-free safety assessment for chemicals. This paper was developed jointly with the Chemical Industries Association (CIA). The International Fragrance Association (IFRA UK), the British Coatings Federation (BCF) and the Chemical Business Association (CBA) are also co-signatories to this paper.
The document sets out the overarching principles shared by the chemical manufacturers and downstream users, in their shared ambition to move away from animal testing when scientifically possible. Each organisation has their own individual position paper supporting the common themes.
Both the joint paper and CTPA’s individual paper are publicly available and can be downloaded from the CTPA website here.
