Consumer products
In daily life, consumers use products of which the information on the label indicates that they have been produced with nanotechnology or contain nanomaterials. In some cases that is actually true, but the term ‘nano’ is sometimes also used as a marketing tool when the use of nanotechnology or nanomaterials has not been proven. RIVM identifies and reports on new developments in this area for a broad audience and collaborates with other organisations in this field.
