RESTRICTED SUBSTANCES LIST
RSL version 2.0
July .2020
SUITSUPPLY 2020INTRODUCTION 2.0
The production of apparel from raw materials to finished products is a complex and chemical-intensive process.
For this reason, SUITSUPPLY is committed to developing and implementing responsible chemical management procedures throughout its supply chain and for all manufacturing processes and product
components (including accessories / trims attached to garments, prints and packaging materials).
SUITSUPPLY expects the same commitment from its suppliers and has developed a Restricted Substances List (SUITSUPPLY RSL 2.0) as a reference for suppliers regarding all chemicals that are banned or
restricted in SUITSUPPLY's production processes and finished products. The purpose of the Restricted Substances List (RSL) is to help reduce the use of hazardous substances in SUITSUPPLY's textile and
apparel supply chain.
It is SUITSUPPLY’s priority to ensure that all chemicals and other substances (dyes, finishes etc) used in the manufacture of its products are approved and quantities fall within the maximum allowable
concentration limits stated in this RSL. Non-compliance with these requirements can have serious consequences not only for the final consumer but also for the environment and for workers involved in the
manufacturing process.
Our RSL includes;
1. Legal requirements inside the EU.
2. Upcoming European Legislation
3. Responsibility of all the supplier regarding Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) mentioned on the REACH Candidate list
4. Requirements based on best practice as identified by Eco label organisations such as OEKO-TEX® or mentioned by NGO’s, like Greenpeace.
A valid OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 product certificate issued by the OEKO-TEX® Association (www.oeko-tex.com) covers most of the requirements of this RSL.
Please be prepared that your contact person may request a signature for each order as a declaration that the specific order complies with our RSL requirements. It is also possible that one or more of your
styles could be selected for pre-shipment testing at a certified laboratory.
As a matter of general principle, SUITSUPPLY reserves the right to select styles to be (counter) tested upon arrival in our warehouse. If this test produces a “FAIL” result, all of the costs incurred in this testing
process shall be borne by the supplier, including all additional costs associated with non-marketable styles.
As part of our ongoing sustainability improvement process, this RSL will be updated on a regular basis to incorporate additions to the list and/or changes to legislation. Together with our vendors, we seek
opportunities to achieve continuous improvement in this area. To this end, the RSL can be used as a basis for the development of Quality Management Systems.
