Aromatics in everyday life

Many items taken for granted in our everyday lives rely on products made by, or with the contribution of, the aromatics industry. Everyday, they help meet fundamental human needs, such as health, hygiene, housing and food; and they are also strong in areas as diverse as transport, high technology, sports, leisure – and even art restoration and crime detection!

The list of everyday products and items manufactured with an input from aromatics is endless. Here, we will focus on just a few of them, from the mundane, such as the aspirin, air-bags, easy-to-wear clothes, to recent high-tech developments such as the CD-ROM. Check out this section regularly and you will doubtless learn a thing or two!
