The ZDHC Foundation oversees the implementation of the ZDHC Roadmap to Zero Programme, a collaboration of major fashion brands, value chain affiliates and associations. Together, we drive the global implementation of safer chemical management practices.
We operate with transparency, using shared values, collaboration and networking to drive change, future-proof the industry, and protect the environment.
There are currently more than 50 organizations that have committed to zdhc. It includes well-known brands such as Adidas, Burberry, and H&M.
Huai’an KAIYUE Technology Development Co., Ltd. is a certified water-based environmentally friendly PU manufacturer of ZDHC.
In 2011, the ZDHC Roadmap to Zero Programme began as a coalition of six brands and those brands committed to a Joint Roadmap, in which they outlined their future activities.
In 2014, the ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC MRSL) Version 1 was released, along with Chemical Guidance Sheets. Updated in December 2015, the ZDHC MRSL Version 1.1 also included leather and coated fabrics.
In 2015, the ZDHC Joint Roadmap was updated and ZDHC transitioned to management under a legal entity established in the Netherlands – the ZDHC Foundation. The clearly established vision for the ZDHC Foundation is widespread implementation of sustainable chemistry, driving innovation and best practices in the industry to protect consumers, workers and the environment.
Also in 2015, Focus and Cross Cutting Areas were formed in order to optimise impact and complement the work of other industry associations and non-governmental organisations. In 2017, these focus areas were restructured to enable a more holistic approach and tackle all parts of the global textile, leather and footwear value chain.
Our Mission is to enable the textile, apparel and footwear industries to implement sustainable chemical management best practice across the value chain. Through collaborative engagement, standard setting, and implementation, we will advance towards zero discharge of hazardous chemicals.
Our Vision is the widespread implementation of sustainable chemistry, driving innovations and best practices in textile, apparel and footwear industries to protect consumers, workers and the environment.
