SSbD4ChEM brings together stakeholders from industry, government, academia, and civil society to
develop and promote best practices for safe and sustainable product and process design, through
demonstration in 3 case studies. SSbD4CheM aims to meet the EU's strategic objectives for digital,
enabling, and emerging technologies, sectors, and value chains by developing a comprehensive Safe
and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) framework that uses new science- based approaches to identify and
address potential hazards and risks, and innovative technologies to support the design of safer and
more sustainable products and processes. SSbD4CheM objectives include: 1) SSbD framework to
facilitate development of the next generation of chemicals and materials applicable to renewable
composites in automotive value chain, PFAS-free coatings for textile and cellulose nanofibers as
additive in cosmetics to replace plastic microbeads,
2) Development of efficient hazard screening tools for alternative assessment of next generation
chemicals/materials/ products combining in silico tools and multicriteria analysis, 3) Advanced
explorative ex-ante LCA method supported by molecular and data-driven modelling to fill data gaps
for (novel) materials and chemicals, 4) Integration of chemical/ (nano-)material characterization
methods to assess products' environmental safety, quantify emissions to support occupational and
consumer safety limits, 5) Development of alternative, in vitro models, as part of New Approach
Methodologies for adequate exposure scenarios, 6) Harmonization and validation of analytical and
toxicological methods for proposition to regulatory and standardization bodies to contribute to the
development of new standards and facilitate market acceptance of SSbD4CheM project results, and 7)
Enhance overall SSbD4CheM impact through stakeholder
engagement, training, dissemination and exploitation and drive industrial innovation.
