The primary purpose of the Media Center is to keep reporters and other interested parties apprised of developments in the regulatory and scientific world of phthalates. Recent panel statements may be found in this section.

Other information on this Web site that may be of value to the media includes the discussion of health related matters found in the Science and Health section. Another feature, Did You Know, explores some of the scientific principles and processes that underlie discussion of chemicals-related issues.

Although the Web site also addresses events in Europe, for European issues you may wish to consult www.ecpi.org/, the Web site of the European Council for Plasticisers and Intermediates.
