After five years of research and testing, Aquavent was launched in January 2018. GTI’s new technology was designed to eliminate harmful PFCs.
The ECO PASSPORT by Oeko-Tex program can be used to assess chemical products across the textile and leather supply chain in a confidential process that confirms that the formulations and individual ingredients meet specific criteria for sustainability, safety, and regulatory compliance.
Chemical formulations are checked against the extensive Oeko-Tex list of substances of concern and then verified by laboratory evaluation to ensure that they do not contain unsafe contaminants. The ECO PASSPORT certification is part of the modular portfolio of Oeko-Tex certifications and consumer labels used by over 10,000 companies. (GK)
