Can a public body publish its evaluation without exposing supplier trade secrets unnecessarily?

Yes.

The company publishes no composition, and each numbered report it relies on is named with its institution and number.

The company publishes no list of its confidential information and no account of its internal controls. The Terms of Use state that confidential, proprietary, patient or trade-secret information must not be sent through a general Site form, and that C-POLAR does not accept a duty of confidentiality for material sent through a general Site form unless a Separate Agreement covering that material is already in force. What is confidential between C-POLAR and another party is set by the Separate Agreement between them.

All questions

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
