AMSTERDAM - Swiss-based Bluesign Technologies is to become a contributor to the ZDHC Roadmap to Zero Programme which aims to substitute hazardous chemicals for safer ones in textiles and clothing production.
It comes 17 months after Bluesign, which works throughout textile supply chains to approve chemicals, processes, materials and products that are safe for the environment, agreed to co-operate with ZDHC.
The agreement will lead to Bluesign's list of more than 12,000 approved chemical products from over 190 suppliers being added to the ZHDC Gateway, an online search tool that enables suppliers to evaluate the safety of chemicals used in production processes.
