Chemicals group Archroma has launched The Safe Edge, an online platform for product-related regulatory and compliance certificates and information. 

It said with growing public awareness around the social, health and ecological impacts of human and business activities, the need for transparency in supply chains has become essential. 

The Safe Edge allows brands, retailers and textiles manufacturers to verify the status of Archroma products, including regulations, ecotoxicological information and certifications, as well as brand requirements. 

It covers information such as air emission factors, bluesign, Cradle-to-Cradle, chemical inventories, Compostability EN 13432, Nordic Swan, Oekotex Standard 100, REACH, RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substance), ZDHC (Zero Discharge Hazardous Chemicals), and brand standards, such as Coats A&F MRSL, Decathlon RSL 2020, Jack Wolfskin RSL and The List IV by Inditex. 

Carole Mislin, head of product Stewardship at Archroma, said: "We wanted to offer a step change improvement in our service to all our customers and partners. Time is of the essence, and The Safe Edge offers instant online access to up-to-date regulatory and ecotoxicological information and certificates.”
