BASEL – The Ecological and Toxicological Association of Dyes and Organic Pigments Manufacturers (ETAD) has set new limits for organic pigments that relate to the European Union Toy Safety Directive. The Swiss-based organisation, which represents the interests of around 30 suppliers of dyes and pigments, has also decided to publish a list of ‘impurities of concern’ for dyes used in textile applications.
