Definition of microplastics
Microplastics are small particles of plastic (< 5 mm) dispersed in the environment. They may be fragments of plastic objects or plastic microbeads, which are increasingly used by industry in cosmetics, paints and detergents, as well as in certain agricultural, medical and construction products.
Our intensive use of plastics in everyday life has led to the appearance of slowly degradable plastic materials that are entering our environment, our food chain and our water. Regular checks on your products and industrial environments may therefore be necessary.
Why learn about microplastics?
Training in microplastics is essential if we are to understand their environmental and health impact, meet growing regulations and anticipate consumer expectations. It also enables us to innovate by developing sustainable alternatives that comply with new standards, while playing an active part in reducing plastic pollution. Finally, mastering this subject helps to better protect human health from the potential risks associated with their presence in everyday products.
