Sustainability
Responsible chemistry, stated claim by claim
We don't label our entire range 'eco-friendly.' Below are the specific environmental and compliance claims made in our technical documentation, and the products they apply to.
APEO-Free Formulations
A number of our pre-treatment and finishing products are formulated without alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEO), as stated in their individual technical descriptions.
Fluorine-Free Water Repellency
AWAXO AQUAGUARD C0 is formulated as a fluorine-free water-repellency finish, avoiding fluorocarbon chemistry while delivering waterproof performance.
Formaldehyde-Free Fixing
AWAXOFIX AB200, our quaternary polyammonium reactive fixer, is formulated as formaldehyde-free.
Low-Foam Processing
AWAXSOAP-EPS is a low-foam soaping agent, supporting safer, easier exhaust processing with less effluent foam.
What we don't claim
Only the products listed above carry the specific claims shown. We do not describe our full catalogue as APEO-free, fluorine-free or otherwise "eco-friendly" unless it is stated in that product's own technical documentation. We have not been issued, and do not claim, any third-party environmental certifications for these products. If a claim matters to your compliance requirements, please confirm details directly with our technical team.
Beyond Certifications
How we think about responsible chemistry
Efficient Processing
Concentrated formulations and low-dosage products reduce the volume of chemistry needed per batch.
Durable Performance
Fastness- and durability-focused chemistry (fixers, softeners, repellents) supports longer-lasting finished goods.
Responsible Selection
We help customers match chemistry to the actual process requirement, rather than over-specifying product.
