SUBSPORT, the Substitution Support Portal, is a new internet portal that will provide information about safer alternatives to the use of hazardous chemicals. The substitution portal will support companies in fulfilling substi­tu­tion requirements of EU legislation, and the portal will also be a resource for other stake­hol­ders such as authorities, environ­men­tal and consumer orga­nisa­tions as well as scientific institutions.

The project is carried out by Kooperationsstelle Hamburg in Germany, in cooperation with ChemSec, Istas in Spain and Grontmij/Carl Bro in Denmark.

The SUBSPORT portal aims to be the leading database for substitution worldwide. It will provide general information on alternatives for hazardous substances as well as a detailed, evaluated compilation of case studies which document practical experiences in the substitution of a smaller number of selected substances of very high concern.

The portal till be a source of not just information on alternative substances and technologies, but also of tools and guidance for substance evaluation and substitution management.
