Preface

Survey of chemical substances in headphones and hearing protection aids

The project Survey of chemical substances in headphones and hearing protection aids is a part of the Danish Environmental Protection Agency’s combined efforts related to survey of chemical substances in consumer products.

The purpose of the project was to create an overview over the market for the two product groups, which materials are being used in products of today and propose how a health assessment can be made.

The project was managed by FORCE Technology, with senior project manager Anders Schmidt as project manager and with Erik Bjarnov and Tenna Brandt Nielsen as responsible for the chemical analyses.
