Abstract
Metal–organic frameworks hold immense application potential, but their stability and environmental safety remain barriers to industrial translation. Embracing the ‘safe and sustainable by design’ framework would, however, set a transformative pathway to the development of robust, recyclable metal–organic frameworks, ensuring functionality, minimal ecological impact and alignment with circular economy and chemical sustainability goals.
