Transcript of Garmon, a pioneer of the revolution
Garmon introduces “GreenScreen®
for Safer
Chemicals” certification in the apparel industry,
to let the fashion world enjoy beautiful garments
produced through truly safe chemicals.
Garmon’s being awarded GreenScreen®
certification is part of the
groundbreaking “Green of Change”, Garmon’s platform matching
love for fashion, technical mastery and respect for the planet.
Garmon changes the paradigm in fashion, introducing the GreenScreen
®
certification to the apparel industry. It is indeed the first specialty chemical supplier to
comply with this revolutionary worldwide leading standard, a publicly available and
transparent chemical hazard screening method developed by the NGO “Clean Production
Action” (CPA).
Garmon, a pioneer of the revolution. Garmon is the advanced chemical supplier for the apparel world that provides
worldwide fashion players with advanced solutions to give wearers exactly what they ask
for: garments enhanced by modern and beautiful fashion treatments that are safe for
them and for the planet.
Garmon is the only company contractually granted a 2-year license on the
GreenScreen® trademark in apparel.
Green is the new black: fashion welcomes GreenScreen®
products. Environmental issues will be the driving topic affecting business in the next 10 years,
challenging the way companies manufacture, use and distribute chemicals. Fashion
brands and laundries can indeed no longer just promise future change: an answers must
be given now.
“GreenScreen® for Safer Chemicals” is what ZDHC (Zero Discharge of Hazardous
Chemicals) Joint Map (2013) recommends as the best tool to assess the safety of
chemicals.
While other certification protocols are property of specific associations or companies,
GreenScreen®
is revolutionary in the sense that it is open and freely accessible.
GreenScreen®
moves away from any transience and temporariness and is instead a
symbol of solid commitment to the environment. It allows brands that choose this
certification path to be counted as leading design and ethical icons. It shows the
world that responsible developments and production with zero aesthetical trade-
offs are now possible and cool.
Garmon’s commitment to responsibility dates back to the very beginning of its
operations. Garmon is the first specialty chemical supplier to proudly introduce
GreenScreen®
in the apparel industry. Some of the chemicals that are now
GreenScreen®
certified are the very same products that have been on the market long
before, proving how embedded in the company’s DNA environmental values are.
Green of Change, the platform for the new Millennium. GreenScreen®
certified
products are part of Garmon’s platform “Green of Change”, umbrella concept totally
dedicated to its most innovative and technological advanced projects. “Green of
Change” means love for fashion, technical mastery and respect for the planet.
Every garment, technology and product that displays the Green of Change logo is a
beacon of true inspiration, able to prove that an answer to international call for
sustainability can be given right now without any compromise.
Avol oxy white: bleaching revolution certified GreenScreen®. Garmon launches Avol
Oxy White, the innovative bleaching agent certified by GreenScreen® designed to
obtain localized effects on denim fabrics avoiding potassium permanganate.
Potassium permanganate is pervasively used today throughout the fashion industry, but it
still entails many risks to health and the environment. Avol Oxy White is an alternative
and safer solution to jeans bleaching. The long- awaited response for fashion.
