REACH and Restricted Substance Compliance Testing
topic
Coated textile chemical compliance testing verifies absence of REACH SVHC substances above 0.1 percent concentration, restricted substances under OEKO-TEX Standard 100 including formaldehyde, heavy metals, phthalate plasticisers, and organohalogens, PFAS content under restricted substance list limits for DWR finishes, and solvent residues including DMF below occupational exposure and consumer contact limits through accredited laboratory analysis by GC-MS, ICP-MS, and HPLC methods.
Role
Verifies that coated textile products comply with the expanding range of chemical restriction regulations and voluntary certification standards that govern market access for consumer-contact coated textiles, with chemical compliance testing being mandatory for REACH compliance, brand restricted substance list compliance, and sustainability certification that increasingly determine whether coated textile products can be sold in European and North American markets.
