We believe it is important to ensure our products are safe to use, now and in the future. We believe regulatory decisions on our products should be made based on sound science. We are committed to improving the scientific understanding of bromine products and will commission independent research in this area and share the results with the public.

Key areas of research include:

• Monitoring the environment for the presence of BFRs in air, water, soil, sediment, and biological samples
  
• Determining the potential effects of exposure and at what level those effects might occur
  
• Finding cost-effective solutions to managing waste electrical and electronic equipment containing bromine.
