New Bluesign® System Partner Area
For 16 years bluesign technologies has been providing solutions for chemicals management and supporting the entire textile value chain towards a more sustainable textile industry. Today the new bluesign® system partner area was launched to combine all its services within a one-stop service platform. Over 500 companies already benefit from these state-of-the-art applications and the extensive expert knowledge.
The new bluesign® system partner area includes the applications bluetool(pat.), bluefinder(pat.), blueXpert, and blueguide. Furthermore, a multitude of factsheets, guidance sheets, and best practice information is available to implement a chemical change management based on the systemic Input Stream Management approach.
The bluetool(pat.), a real science portal, serves chemical suppliers as a risk assessment tool to rate chemical products in regards of their environmental impact, occupational health and safety, and consumer safety.
As the first and most comprehensive positive chemicals list, the bluefinder(pat.) supports manufacturers to identify good chemistry and to eliminate hazardous substances from the outset.
Manufacturers can also get access to the blueXpert, a revolutionary resource productivity calculator to optimize their resource productivity.
And finally, the blueguide, a growing database of verified components, acts as a sourcing tool for assemblers and brands.
The web-based bluesign® applications additionally help as track-and-trace tools for the bluesign® system and thus ensure transparency.
“The new bluesign® system partner area is a milestone for us as a service company, as it will dramatically change the way we interact with our system partners. With the one-stop service platform we are more than ever able to support the textile industry on its way towards a more sustainable textile production. Current and future market demands can easily be met today, so that adverse effects of chemicals on human health or the environment are minimized. Furthermore, we created the foundation to expand our solutions and to provide new applications and features in the future further strengthening our leader position”, says Peter Waeber, CEO of bluesign technologies ag.
