Article Number: 2011358
Description: Care products, such as waterproofing sprays, are used on leather and textile items to give them water- and dirt-repellent properties. To achieve this effect, waterproofing agents often contain PFAS, which can enter the environment over time and accumulate there. This proficiency testing offers you the opportunity to check your analysis of such care products.
Category: chemical-physical testing consumer goods and packaging Cleaning and care agents
Accreditation: This proficiency test is not included in the scope of the accreditation.
