Green Theme International (GTI), the creators of sustainable and water-free textile technologies, has just received the ECO PASSPORT certification by OEKO-TEX from the Hohenstein Institute (Germany) for GTI’s new Aquavent water-repellency chemistry. After five years of research and testing, GTI says it developed an entirely new technology, which eliminates water usage and harmful chemical discharges from traditional DWR finishing processes. GTI’s technology completely eliminates harmful PFC’s and outperforms existing C6, C8 and PFC-free DWRs, says the company.
