Find out more about Hexabromocyclododecanes

Hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs) are brominated flame retardants widely used in various consumer products, such as building materials, textiles and electronic equipment. HBCDs exist in three main diastereomeric forms: α-HBCD, β-HBCD and γ-HBCD, the latter being the most abundant in commercial products.

Environmental and health problems

HBCDs are of concern because of their persistence in the environment, their ability to bioaccumulate in the food chain and their potential for toxicity to aquatic organisms. They may also present risks to human health, including potential effects on reproduction, development and the neurological system.

Regulations and control measures

As a result of these concerns, HBCDs were included in the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants in 2013.

In France, regulations are strict and HBCDs are subject to rigorous standards to limit their use and environmental impact.

In Belgium, European and Belgian regulations require every company to take measures to avoid or reduce workers’ exposure to hazardous chemicals, including HBCDs.
