Tianhai Lace collection for intimate apparel endorsed skin friendly

Tianhai Lace, Chinese warp knitted lace manufacturer’s new lace collection for intimate apparel has been endorsed Skin Friendly by the Hohenstein Institute after carrying out its skin compatibility test on randomly selected samples from the collection to confirm that no cytotoxic substances leach out of the sample materials.

Hohenstein’s skin compatibility test is adapted, in the case of products worn close to the skin, to test for interaction with living skin cells. Samples undergo a thorough evaluation to determine whether skin cells are damaged by contact in a way that could result in skin irritation. A selection of
Tianhai lace was analysed and found to be non-toxic to skin cells. It can therefore be promoted as skin-friendly.

Consequently, being awarded the Skin Friendly declaration not only increases product and consumer safety but also enables a company to benefit from the high recognition rate of Hohenstein’s tested quality, the Institute stated.

In addition, all lace made by Tianhai is also covered by an Oeko-Tex 100 certification. Tianhai Lace is also committed to improving the environmental impact of its manufacturing operations, having obtained ISO 14001 certification.

Sabina Fu, Sales Manager at Tianhai Lace said that intimate apparel is like a second skin for consumers, as it is the base layer for all their other clothes. Their lace forms part of intimate apparel garments worn by women all over the world. They want to ensure that they are comfortable and that customers don’t have to worry about any harm done to their skin by wearing products made using their lace.
