About the bluesign®standard:
The bluesign® standard is a widely accepted, reliable and proactive tool certifying the eco-friendliness of the entire production chain. Instead of focusing on finished product testing, the bluesign® standard analyses all input streams – from raw materials to chemical component, to resources. Prior to production, components are assessed based on their eco- toxicological impact. Potentially harmful substances can hence be eliminated before production even begins.
