Carcinogenic, mutagenic, and reprotoxic (CMR) substances pose significant risks to human health. These chemicals can cause cancer, genetic mutations, or impair reproductive functions. Within the European Union, the use, handling, and labeling of CMR substances are strictly regulated to ensure worker safety and public health.

In chemical risk assessments, vPvB substances are among the compounds requiring the most careful consideration from an environmental perspective. Defined as “Very Persistent and Very Bioaccumulative,” these substances pose serious risks to both human health and ecosystems due to their ability to remain unchanged in nature for long periods and to accumulate extensively in living organisms.
