Handling of Investigation Requests

Regarding testing requests, we prepare reports for substance content investigations concerning regulated substances such as OEKO-TEX, REACH, and ZDHC. Substance content investigations examine products and raw materials to determine whether they contain substances that may impact the environment or human health. Amidst increasingly stringent regulations, we position this as a critical task for ensuring safety and security, implementing accurate and prompt responses.
