  6. Background

  7. Activities Swedish network for materials in contact with drinking water "The Water Vision" Nordic collaboration Material and product innovation through knowledge based standardization (MAID) Guidelines for Swedish water distributors to assess approvals Governmental investigation about drinking water, sub-report about materials in contact with drinking water

  8. Swedish Network for Materials in Contact with Drinking Water Increasing the knowledge and share experience Regulations, technical aspects, material choice, test methods, health effects, assessment Presentations about relevant issues > 30 membercompanies 2 seminars yearly

  9. Swedish Network for Materials in Contact with Drinking Water

  10. Svenskt Vatten Stockholm Vatten Göteborg Kretslopp och Vatten Sydvatten Borås Energi & Miljö MittSverige Vatten Vaggeryds kommun Over 35 members VVS Företagen SundaHus Nätverk för material i kontakt med dricksvatten Swerea KIMAB SCDA Svensk Armaturindustri (9 företag) Raufoss Water & Gas Cupori Rostfria VA-system Alvenius Thermotech Borealis Uponor SAPA Technology IKEA Vendingföreningen LK system VVS fabrikanternas råd SP Sitac Kiwa Exova Boverket Livsmedelsverket Kemikalieinspektionen

  11. Water Vision Research agenda for the whole water sector Materials in contact with drinking water is a prioritized topic 2020: "Test methods to assess healh effects of materials in contact with drinking water have been developed and are systematically being used"

  12. MAID SINTEF (Norway), Swerea KIMAB (Sweden), Danish Technological Institute (Denmark), WANDER (Finland) Funded 50 % by Nordic Innovation "Material and product innovation through knowledge based standardization" Research group, authorities group, industrial group Health effects and durability

  13. MAID Evaluate Nordic approvals, standards and practices Identify Nordic requirements regarding drinking water that must be adressed Evaluate the applicability of the 4MS work in the Nordic countries Recommendations on how to strengthen the laboratory capacities Key components that should be included in an approval scheme

  14. Guidelines for Swedish water distributors to assess approvals It is the responsibilityofeach operator to make sure to use the appropriate material, based on the information provided by the manufacturer and on the experience gained about the operating conditions.

  15. Guidelines for Swedish water distributors to assess approvals In order to meet the water distributors' needs, the project aims to develop a basis for a simple guide that explains: What are the various available approval systems? What does the approval mean? so that all water suppliers in Sweden will be able to make qualified material choices

  16. Governmental investigation Proposal: “The Board of housing and building is responsible for the national coordination of the issues related to materials in contact with drinking water” Creation of a coordination platform
