As a sector group of Cefic (the European Chemical Industry Council), FormaCare represents key European producers of formaldehyde, aminoplast glues and polyols. FormaCare aims to promote the sustainable use of formaldehyde and formaldehyde based products among its members and their customers, with due regard to health and environmental care. We strongly believe in formaldehyde as a safe and widely used chemical that society benefits from in a great variety of every day products. FormaCare advocates a regulatory policy based on balanced scientific evaluation. Creating an open and effective dialogue with both European and national authorities and downstream users is therefore one of FormaCare key goals.

Issues that the FormaCare Sector Group follows include Occupational Exposure Level (OEL) reductions, EU New Chemicals Management Policy and the Biocide Directive.

FormaCare cooperates closely with the US Formaldehyde Council Inc. (FCI).
