What are the elements of the
DyStar offer? Color Solutions In-
ternational creates color inspira-
tion, communication and realisation
tools for many or the best known
apparel retailers and brands in the
fashion and sportswear sectors.
CSI provides detailed recipes for
each of the individual engineered
color standards which use dyes and
chemical auxiliaries covered by
DyStar econfidence commitment.
econfidence from DyStar ensures
that for every product on the range
there is an eco specification in
place to check for the most likely
chemical contaminants which may
be subject to legal or commercial
prohibition or restriction. It is the
DyStar commitment to keeping un-
desirable hazardous chemicals out
of customers’ supply chains. DyS-
tar offers the highest standards of
hazard communication at a global
level so the wet processing mill has
access to the same level of data, no
matter where in the world it is lo-
cated.
Where a brand or retailer has an
RSL or is required to operate in
compliance with REACH or CPSIA
requirements, for example, then
DyStar can select recipes based on
RSL-compliant and REACH pre-
registered products from its global
ranges, and CSI produces fully eco-
compliant standards.
Through its sustainable Textile
Services, DyStar assists brands &
retailers in the communication of
their RSL requirements back up the
supply chain by means of joint ven-
dor seminars and training, factory
audits and individually-tailored
product evaluation documentation
describing the suitability of DyStar
products in meeting the require-
ments of the RSL. The service
support to mill customers ensures
that they are using Best Available
Technology for wet processing us-
ing state-of-the-art products from
DyStar designed to reduce the envi-
ronmental impact of the coloration
and finishing processes.
DyStar is committed to help-
ing the whole of the textile supply
chain achieve its sustainability ob-
jectives.
