Quimser gains ZDHC certification
Spanish leather chemical company Quimser has taken another step in their sustainable development strategy by obtaining ZDHC level 1 certification for all their products.
Announcing the certification, the company said: “This new certification of compliance, in addition to our existing certifications, demonstrates our commitment to sustainability and the responsible management of chemical products.
“Replacing hazardous substances with less harmful ones has long been a priority in our product development. A priority that is even more evident with our attainment of the ZDHC certification”.
The ZDHC Level 1 certification ensures that products comply with the ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC MRSL) version 3.1, a list of chemical substances banned from intentional use in the processing of leather, footwear and, textiles among other products. The ZDHC MRSL focuses on protecting consumers, workers, local communities, and the environment from the potential impacts of harmful chemicals.
