Our human centric focus is what separates us from all other car companies.

Volvo Cars is actively working to eliminate potentially harmful substances from its products and the product IMDS & Health is responsible for supporting the IMDS (International Material Data System) management at Volvo Cars. IMDS is a global data repository that contains information on material used by the automotive industry.

Through this methodology we can work proactively to choose safe and sustainable materials in our cars as well as securing compliance of produced cars.
