AFIRM member brands may differ on individual parameters; suppliers are advised to check with the customer regarding brand-specific requirements. The AFIRM RSL should leverage AFIRM’s mission — “to reduce the use and impact of harmful substances in the apparel and footwear supply chain” — by providing a single set of information for maximum and in-depth implementation within the supply chain. Some examples of uses for the AFIRM Packaging RSL, depending on the objectives of the user, include:
- Providing a tool for vendors to establish chemical management knowledge and processes.
- Building base compliance with AFIRM member chemical restrictions.
- Providing a common base for testing packaging, which may be accepted by multiple AFIRM brands.
AFIRM member companies determine and communicate to their vendors their testing requirements and acceptance of test reports.
