Nano in sports
and leisure

Safety issues

There is little available safety information on the use of nano in sports products, though the carbon nanotubes used here are fixed into a matrix of other materials and are not absorbable through the skin or in the air. There is uncertainty however about what happens to them when the products are discarded in landfills or recycled.

We hope when the full site is developed to be able to provide more information in this area.

For a little more safety information on the clothing aspect see Nano and Textiles.
