ST GALLEN – Textile chemical management specialist Bluesign has completed its annual revision of its criteria for chemical assessment, which came into force at the end of last month.
The revision incorporates the latest scientific thinking on the toxicological and ecological profile of substances, new legal classification of chemical substances, new legal consumer safety limits and revised risk assessments.
Changes are based on feedback from the bluesign Chemical Experts Group as well as new analytical standards and include a new ‘Substance Navigator’ tool.
