SKIN IRRITATION PROPENSITY OF TEXTILES
Our technical experts offer an extractable matter screening assessment of textile apparel and soft furnishings in cases where skin irritation by contact issues are reported. Devised in partnership with leading retailers this assessment identifies residual substances on textiles which may give rise to irritation. Once identified, these substances can be further quantified by in-depth analysis to assess whether a processing issue exists.
