This week, we had the honor of hosting the Ambassador of Thailand to Norway, H.E. Ms. Nitivadee Manitkul.
The PlastChem report "state of the science on plastic chemicals" leaves the impression that plastics cause danger due to the presence of a high number of potentially dangerous chemicals. This is a misunderstanding. The number of chemicals actually used in the manufacturing of plastics and plastic products globally is only a fraction of those listed; they are all known and most of them are regulated.
Plastics are favored in medical devices and medical packaging due to their versatility, durability, and biocompatibility, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.
On the other hand, medical plastic waste threatens the environment and human health. Policy makers, healthcare industry, healthcare service institutions and waste management industry are now taking action to establish more sustainable solutions for the whole product value.
We are pleased to inform that Norner has received DNV certification for both IMO Resolution IMO MSC.215(82) and IMO MSC.288(87) for coating testing in accordance with Class Programme DNV-CP-0622.
