Pertex keeps sustainability evidence on a per-article and per-facility basis, with each certificate scope, scheme, and validity noted — buyers can request the file at any time. Pertex maps performance and ingredient fiber sustainability claims to specific test methods, schemes or facility scorecards.
| Area | Buyer evidence | Review cadence |
|---|---|---|
| Chemistry | ZDHC MRSL or REACH screening route | Annual or formula change |
| Recycled input | GRS/RCS transaction document request | Per lot where claimed |
| Facility impact | Higg FEM or water and energy ledger | Annual |
| Product safety | OEKO-TEX 100 certificate request | Certificate validity period |
Microplastic claims are not made on synthetic-fiber articles; Pertex reports fiber composition and shedding test data where it is available. Pertex reports Performance Fabric & Membrane sustainability against scheme face, scope and validity rather than narrative claims.
FAQ topics: chemical compliance scope, recycled-content scheme differences (GRS vs RCS), Higg FEM vs Higg BRM, REACH SVHC update cadence. Pertex delivers the Performance Fabric & Membrane sustainability packet inside one cycle when scheme and audit deadline are named.
