GLOBAL - Chemical management specialists Bluesign, ZDHC and Oeko-Tex have all confirmed they are committed to phasing out the use of potentially hazardous PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in textiles.

Dubbed 'forever chemicals' because of their durability in the environment, PFAS are widely used in the textile industry for their water, stain and oil-repellent properties.

A coalition of environmental groups recently urged Bluesign, ZDHC and Oeko-Tex to "quickly update all certifications to prohibit the use of all PFAS compounds in both products and product manufacturing".
