CETS participated in the 71st meeting of the Committee for Socio-Economic Analysis (SEAC-71), represented by Marco Passeri, contributing as an accredited stakeholder to discussions of strategic importance for the European surface treatment sector.

The meeting addressed the restriction proposal on the use of certain chromium(VI) oxides, oxyacids and salts, with reference to the agreement of the SEAC draft opinion, as well as the update on the Universal per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (UPFAS) restriction proposal following the consultation on the SEAC draft opinion.
