ZDHC guidelines help minimise the discharge of hazardous chemicals throughout the textile, apparel, leather, and footwear value chains.
Brands frequently require proof of conformance to the ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC MRSL) before committing their production to a specific supplier facility.
Laboratories and certifiers approved by ZDHC play a critical role in validating conformance to relevant ZDHC guidelines.
The ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC MRSL) limits harmful chemicals in formulations for manufacturing textile, apparel, leather, and footwear products.
Certifiers who have passed the due diligence process of ZDHC become ZDHC MRSL Certifiers and are in effect approved as able to provide certificates as an indication of conformance to the ZDHC MRSL.
To analyse the discharge from supplier facilities, laboratories test wastewater and sludge against the ZDHC Wastewater Guidelines.
Laboratories are approved by ZDHC based on criteria including staff experience, equipment and processes in place to analyse wastewater and sludge samples.
To ensure consistent data quality, ZDHC Approved Laboratories submit test report data into the ZDHC Gateway Wastewater Module on behalf of the supplier.
