As a Contributor (From the Chemical Industry):
Fineotex is a specialty chemical manufacturing public listed company with FDA approved plants in India and Malaysia producing 43,000 tons of auxiliaries, supplying to over 69 countries and has a JV with BioTex Malaysia and has Bluesign certification. Finetox has been listed on NSE/BSE since 2011 and was awarded “The Fastest growing Chemical Company in India’s chemical sector”.
Moving forward, Fineotex wants to stay up-to-date with the recent sustainable developments of ZDHC MRSL V2.0 for their product line to be future-ready by implementing sustainable chemical management to support green product manufacturing. By becoming a Contributor to the ZDHC Foundation, we can reach the ZDHC contributor factories as a vendor with confidence to provide a safe product line and to reach brands that are also ZDHC Contributors. Participating in the ZDHC Foundation’s Roadmap to Zero Programme will boost the knowledge of Fineotex’s Sustainability department and our Marketing team which will spread green chemistry alongside wastewater guidelines.
“Fineotex became a ZDHC Contributor to expand the wave of a sustainable product line with the specific goal to remove hazardous ingredients from the textile chemical production supply chain.”
