Naturally fresh clothes, 3M Scotchgard is here to protect you!
In recent years, “sustainable development” has been leading the transformation of global markets, industries and other fields, and the greenenvironmental protection consumption concept has become increasingly popular. Under this severe background, there is an urgent need for products that are environmentally friendly and have both high performance and durability to meet the needs of the market. Anti-fouling and water-repellent agents that are widely used on a variety of textiles are a good example.
3M’s pioneering role in environmental protection
On December 29, 2022, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and several other ministries and commissions jointly released the “List of Key New Pollution Controls (2023) Edition”. According to regulations, the production, processing and use of perfluorooctanoic acid, its salts and related compounds (PFOA) will be completely banned from March 1, 2023 (except for exempted uses). In addition, on issues related to C8 polymers, precursor substances and similar long-chain compounds, countries are also conducting reviews, restrictions or bans on the basis of regulations, such as evaluation, restrictions or bans. In today’s environmental protection trend, 3M took the lead in launching fluorine-free waterproof technology for fabrics.
By integrating technology and continuously optimizing products, and then using good products, consumers can truly feel the charm of environmentally friendly materials and generate more interest. In the field of manufacturing operations, 3M has vigorously promoted energy conservation and emission reduction, fully complying with the trend of future sustainable development.
