heavy metals zone

The company Umicore emits heavy metals such as lead. Small heavy metal particles are fixed to dust particles in the air. The closer to the farm, the more these particles precipitate and end up in and on the soil. This makes it more likely that heavy metals can be swallowed through hands. These tips are particularly important to protect children. They are more sensitive to the negative effects of heavy metals and are more likely to come into contact with them due to their behaviour.
