Attendees of the 2015 Polyurethanes Technical Conference conference will have the opportunity to explore industry developments, innovations and research in environment, health and safety (EHS) during a dedicated pre-conference workshop and technical session. Hosted by the Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI), the 58th annual conference will be held Oct. 5 to 7, 2015, at the Gaylord Palms Resort and Convention Center in Orlando, Fla.
“In today's industry, polyurethane professionals go above and beyond to adress environment, health and safety,” said Lee Salamone, senior director of CPI. “The Poyurethanes Technical Conference is a place where they can learn about the latest EHS advancements and research, enabling them to continue to uphold our industry's high standards.”
The pre-conference workshop, titled "Introduction to Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Issues Relative to Diisocyanates," is returning for a third year to give participants an opportunity to learn more about EHS regulations, industrial hygiene, toxicology, medical surveillance and exposure controls.
On Monday afternoon, the conference will feature a dedicated EHS session that will highlight the applications of spray polyurethane foam, ASTM standards and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and finish with a discussion on environmental and health impacts of VOCs in the atmosphere. In addition, various poster and technical sessions on spray polyurethane foams, chemical life-cycles and flame retardants will discuss EHS issues.
