What are fluorine-free materials?
In recent years, consumers around the world have shown great enthusiasm for products made from fluorine-free materials. So, what exactly are fluorine-free materials?
Fluorine-free materials refer to functional fabrics that do not use any fluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the entire textile production process, from raw material weaving to post-treatment. In simple terms, fluorine-free materials have the advantages of not containing hard-to-degrade permanent chemicals, being low-carbon and environmentally friendly, and being suitable for all people to use.
Why use fluorine-free materials to make products?
For a long time, fluorine-containing finishing agents have been widely used in the production of luggage fabrics due to their water and stain repellent properties. However, the perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) they contain are "forever chemicals" that are difficult to degrade in the natural environment. These substances not only cause irreversible ecological pollution but also form residues in the human body through daily skin contact, posing a threat to human health, especially to sensitive groups such as mothers and infants, and children.
With the global awakening of consumers' awareness of health, safety and environmental protection, as well as the full implementation of the world's strictest regulatory policies such as the EU REACH regulation, the PFAS ban in multiple US states, and the EU CSDDD due diligence directive, fluorine-containing fabrics have changed from a "functional option" for brands to a "compliance minefield". Fluorine-containing products may face customs seizures and huge fines, and even have a negative impact on the brand's reputation. Against this backdrop, the application of fluorine-free materials has become the core foundation for brands to fulfill their social responsibilities and win the trust of consumers.
