H&M's Commitment to Safe Chemicals & Sustainability in Fashion | H&M
Chemicals
As one of the first fashion companies to establish chemical restrictions in 1995, we continue to evolve these requirements, push for higher industry standards and perform frequent testing to ensure our suppliers comply.
H&M Group are active members of two industry platforms created to reduce the use of hazardous chemicals in the apparel and footwear supply chain: the Apparel and Footwear RSL Management (AFIRM Group) and the Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC). Our chemical restrictions for textiles are aligned with both the AFIRM Restricted Substances List and the ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substance List.
