Nanotechnology holds great promise for enabling new products which improve our quality of life. Cheaper, smarter, faster and stronger - just some of the benefits of 'nano-enabled' products.
As nanotechnology capabilities continue to expand, significant global efforts are being directed towards assessing the associated social, ethical, environmental and occupational health and safety concerns. Marion Nanosystems is committed to ongoing collaboration with relavent policy, regulatory and independant bodies to:
§ Assess potential risks related to handling, storage, use and disposal of
nanomaterials
§ Identify and implement safe labelling, handling, storage, use and disposal of
nanomaterials
§ Educate our customers in regard to safe labelling, handling, storage, use and
disposal of nanomaterials
We will continue to update our site with important information relating to social, ethical, environmental and occupational health and safety issues surrounding nanotechnology and nanomaterials..
