Textile ZDHC validates GreenScreen for conformance

The GreenScreen CertifiedTM Standard for Textile Chemicals requires all intentionally added substances and all impurities (>0.01%) to meet ZDHC Group B MRSL (this excludes a number1 of halogenated FRs, including TCEP, Deca and other BDEs, TBBPA TDCP, BBMP, BIS and TRIS, HBCDD and SCCPs, and TEPA Tris(1-aziridinyl)phosphine oxide, see pinfa Newsletter n°89).

Certification Level (Gold, Silver, Bronze) depends on whether chemicals achieve GreenScreen Benchmarks 3+4, 2+3+4 or not List Translator LT-1.
