Oxonica plc 09 August 2007 PRESS RELEASE Industry leaders to develop nanotech Code of Conduct Oxford, UK, August 8 2007. Leading International nanomaterials group Oxonica is joining forces with other industry experts in a new initiative to develop a Code of Conduct for businesses working with nanotechnologies. The aim of the voluntary Code will be to establish good practice for businesses involved in all aspects of emerging nanotechnologies including research, development, manufacturing, distribution and retailing. Oxonica is a member of the Nanotechnology Industry Association, one of the four founding partners responsible for developing the Code. A working party has been formed with other groups including business and non-governmental organisations along with scientists and social scientists. Confirmed members of the working group so far include - amongst others - the chemical company BASF, Unilever, Tesco, the consumer group Which? and development NGO Practical Action. Kevin Matthews, CEO of Oxonica said "At Oxonica we are committed to developing nanotechnology based products, responsibly in partnership with other leading companies that address major global issues and market needs. In this rapidly developing market we are pleased to be working with other industry leaders to develop a Code that will set the standards for the nanotechnology community to operate within". The initiative to develop a Code of Conduct for businesses working with nanotechnologies has been launched by the Royal Society, Insight Investment, the Nanotechnology Industries Association and the Nanotechnology Knowledge Transfer Network. The Code will be voluntary with companies being encouraged to publicly explain how they comply with its principles through, for example statements in annual or corporate responsibility reports. The Code will set out expected corporate behaviours and management processes rather than an auditable standard, although indicators of compliance may be developed. An open consultation will take place in Autumn 2007 when a draft code will be available for comment. More information is available from www.responsiblenanocode.org. The working group aims to publish the Code early in 2008.
