Technical publications

The Euro Chlor database of techical publications will continue to expand as new documents or revisions are completed. Through these publications you can access the accumulated experience of our members to ensure the best health, safety and environmental practices in the manufacture, handling and use of chlor-alkali products.

Many of the documents are highly technical, specifically produced to assist producers in setting or upgrading their own standards and policies to ensure consistency with European industry recommendations.

If you are not involved in the chlor-alkali industry, but are interested in obtaining one of our publications you can order online. Prices are indicated next to the title in the list. Click on order publications at the end of the document description to access the order form. The document will be mailed to you and an invoice submitted for payment within 30 days from the end of the month in which the order is made.

If you are employed by a Euro Chlor member company (full, associate or technical correspondent), technical publications are available on the Chlorvinyl.net and free of charge as one of the benefits of membership. Please e-mail our technical and safety department to receive a password and login.
