WHAT’S REVECOL ® by ERCA TCS?
REVECOL® is a 100% Made in Italy breakthrough industry innovation that upcycles critical waste material such as vegetable exhausted cooking oil, into a complete, safe, certified, market competitive, high performing new generation line of chemical auxiliaries for the whole textile industry. The current range includes 18 new generation chemical auxiliaries, and for all of them REVECOL® got the most important certifications: GRS, RCS, ZDHC Chemical Gateway, bluesign® and GOTS.

ERCA TCS is the first company in the world to have GRS certified chemical products, opening the door to responsible chemical auxiliaries. In particular, with the support and analysis of bluesign® Academy ERCA TCS is creating, where possible, the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) for some REVECOL® products, certifying the reduction of CO2 emissions compared to the use of conventional chemistry. From the first results of this work, we see a CO2 reduction that goes from 30% to 72%!
