Key criteria for processing and manufacturing include:

Environmental Criteria

At all stages through the processing organic fibre products must be separated from conventional fibre products and must to be clearly identified

All chemical inputs (e.g. dyes, auxiliaries and process chemicals) must be evaluated and meeting basic requirements on toxicity and biodegradability/eliminability

Prohibition of critical inputs such as toxic heavy metals, formaldehyde, aromatic solvents, functional nano particles, genetically modified organisms (GMO) and their enzymes

The use of synthetic sizing agents is restricted; knitting and weaving oils must not contain heavy metals

Bleaches must be based on oxygen (no chlorine bleaching)

Azo dyes that release carcinogenic amine compounds are prohibited

Discharge printing methods using aromatic solvents and plastisol printing methods using phthalates and PVC are prohibited

Restrictions for accessories (e.g. no PVC, nickel or chrome permitted)

All operators must have an environmental policy including target goals and procedures to minimise waste and discharges

Wet processing units must keep full records of the use of chemicals, energy, water consumption and waste water treatment, including the disposal of sludge. The waste water from all wet processing units must be treated in a functional waste water treatment plant.

Packaging material must not contain PVC. Paper or cardboard used in packaging material, hang tags, swing tags etc. must be recycled or certified according to FSC or PEFC

拔染印花方法采用芳香族溶劑和禁止使用鄰苯二甲酸酯和聚氯乙烯塑料溶膠印刷方法

限制配件(如PVC、鎳或鉻允許)

所有操作人員必須有一個環(huán)境政策包括減少浪費和排放目標的目標和過程

濕處理單元必須保持完整記錄的使用化學物質,能量,用水量和廢水處理,包括污泥的處置。所有濕的廢水處理單元必須在功能廢水處理廠。

包裝材料必須不含PVC。紙或紙板用于包裝材料、掛標簽,swing標簽等必須回收或根據(jù)FSC或PEFC認證
