Reducing contamination risks for environmental safety
Chromium (VI), also known as Hexavalent Chromium can be formed in leather through the oxidation of Chromium (III) compounds that occur within or after the tanning process from inadequate chemical treatment during finishing or due to environmental conditions. Aside from the impact of Chromium (VI) on people and the environment, businesses are also directly affected. Chromium (VI), testing can prevent unsafe products from reaching the market.
