The home appliances market also requires products for applications that are food or even water compliant. In the last years there is an increasing trend to specify materials not only based on performance and regulatory compliance but that also include a more holistic approach to product design, such as:
 
  • Addressing potential risks when materials come in contact with food or water
  • Meeting consumer concerns or expectations that are not yet covered by government regulations  
  • Need for a global supply chain  
  • Environmental footprint
