Auco Chem
After completing the Chem-MAP ZDHC certification process, Chem-MAP is pleased to announce that Auco Chem’s gateway-listed products have been upgraded to ZDHC MRSL V2.0 Level 3.
Previously certified to ZDHC MRSL V2.0 Level 1, Auco Chem has obtained Chem-MAP recertification and updated a few products to Level 3 ZDHC conformity by adding a supplier transparency module and an on-site chemical management audit.
Manufacturers must re-certify their ZDHC accreditation every two years in order to maintain compliance and their dedication to safe chemical management.
The highest level of ZDHC compliance, Level 3, calls for an on-site chemical management audit as well as Manufacturing Restricted Substance List (MRSL) conformity testing for formulations and raw materials.
Lottie York, the leader of the sustainable chemistry program, said that Auco Chem’s upgrading to the highest level of ZDHC compliance and recertification both demonstrate the company’s dedication to safer chemistry. The Chem-MAP team is happy to have assisted Auco Chem in their pursuit of Level 3 ZDHC Certification throughout the whole product line as they continue their sustainable chemistry journey.
