Ed Wyatt, SCS Program Manager for Material Content certification, stated, “Reducing the amount of harmful chemicals needed to produce manufactured goods is an important part of creating a healthier environment. By significantly reducing fluorocarbon compounds, this new product from G3i sets a new environmental benchmark for all other textile finishes.”
The use of GreenShield helps textile fabrics reduce their impact on the environment and human health. Products with the GreenShield finish will be available through fabric jobbers, distributors and furniture manufacturers.
