ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS is an international research and expert consulting company that covers all the main aspects of environmental risk assessment and the management of chemicals, including nanomaterials. Our clients come from various sectors, including private and public research institutes, relevant industries, and international governmental and non-governmental organisations. Since 2010, we have been engaged in the coordination and management of EU research, innovation and development projects focusing on the risk assessment of manufactured nanomaterials. Most recently we have initiated and are coordinating PlasticsFatE, an innovative EU research project developing our understanding of the impact of micro- and nano-plastics on human health.
