This means a considerable time saving, especially when quick decisions must be made for production flows Our labs: • General and instrumental chemistry • Applied Chemistry • Microscopy • microbiology and molecular biology • physical-mechanical

Operation Field Chemical compliance Monitoring of restricted chemicals in compliance with mandatory national and international regulations. The chemical compliance is a key check to simplify custom activities (in import/export) and prevent potential issues at retails level. A compliance assessment and control can be requested to all materials included in a finished product: textile, leather, fur, metal and plastic accessories. More than 350 substances are currently being evaluated as “restricted” by the PRSL (Product Restricted Substance List) issued by the main Luxury brands.

Performance The finished product quality control includes a performance check of all materials used. The tests ensure high quality standards of materials and guarantee the durability of the finished products for a long-time use. In some countries (i.e. China and US) performance tests are mandatory. The tests of materials performance during all production cycle (raw material, semi-finished and finished product) support the brands in case of alternative solutions or production improvement or wip changes, and especially in testing innovative material processes.

Sustainability Chemical tests offer to customers the right support to verify the sustainability of the production process. Currently it is asked to textile and tanning companies a constant conformity checks of the chemical products used (Manufacturing Restricted Substance List - MRSL) and of the correct production processes through the production discharges (wastewater). Other examples of test are metal-free tanning and PFC and Bisphenols…The monitoring of the production processes is an indispensable check to guarantee the sustainability of the processes themselves.

Cosmetic Thanks to the skills acquired in the ecotoxicological sector, TIL has expanded its test by developing analysis methods dedicated to the cosmetic sector. We currently perform analyzes on both raw materials and finished products for the cosmetic and permanent make up (PMU) sector (regulation 2081/2020) and tattoo inks.
