Your practical guidance training for ZDHC CMS TIG implementation

This advanced training is a practical follow-up to the ZDHC CMS Framework Training. It provides in-depth guidance on the ZDHC Guidelines, Platforms and Solutions and how to implement them. It explains the minimum requirements of CMS implementation and contains case studies and practical examples for inspiration.

The training course 'ZDHC Chemical Management System Technical Industry Guide’ (ZDHC CMS TIG) is designed to further develop understanding of the ZDHC CMS TIG Framework and it practical implementation.

overview

This beginner-level training provides an introduction of what the ZDHC Chemical Management System (CMS) Framework is, the requirements of a Chemical Management System and its' implementation at the facility level. It explains why an effective CMS Framework is important for a supplier and how you can support your suppliers during the implementation phase. In addition, the training gives an overview on how ZDHC Guidelines, Platforms and Solutions can support this journey.

The training does not focus on how to practically implement a ZDHC CMS Framework. To learn more about the actual implementation of the ZDHC CMS Framework we would like to refer to the ZDHC CMS TIG training, also available on the ZDHC Academy Platform.

Webinar The Importance of Adopting the ZDHC MRSL V3.0 and its supporting documents.

In 2022 ZDHC Foundation launched the ZDHC MRSL V3.0. The ZDHC MRSL Version 3.0 includes some new harmful chemical substances added to the ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC MRSL) including PFAS treatments used for textiles, leather, and footwear. Notable other changes include a limit for aniline in dyestuffs and the inclusion of a number of organic solvents. In this free webinar the ZDHC MRSL 3.0 is explained by the ZDHC Team.

The ZDHC MRSL is a living document, and is updated as needed following the published update MRSL Principles and Procedures (PnP) document. This webinar explains the latest changes and updates to all stakeholders as well as in a separate session for Labs.

overview

The ZDHC MRSL V3.1 saw a number of solvents added to the main list. Whilst we do not condone the use of these solvents, we recognise that it is not possible for the textile and footwear value chains to move away from some of these solvents overnight towards safer alternatives. During this time in case the banned solvents are used, they should be used responsibly to ensure worker health and safety at facility level, with a reduction in their environmental impact. This guide provides support to the industry on approaches to find safer alternatives and for best practices in managing the solvents at a facility, if used.
