1 Background
The ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (ZDHC MRSL) is a list of chemical substances.
These substances are banned from intentional use in facilities processing textile materials, leather,
rubber, foam, adhesives and trim parts in textiles, apparel, and footwear. Using chemical
formulations that conform to the ZDHC MRSL allows suppliers to assure themselves, and their
customers, that banned chemical substances are not intentionally used during production and
manufacturing processes.
The ZDHC MRSL goes beyond the traditional approaches to chemical restrictions, which only apply to
finished products (Product Restricted Substances List - PRSL). This approach helps to protect
consumers while minimising the possible impact of banned hazardous chemicals on production
workers, local communities, and the environment.
Chemical formulations covered by restrictions in the ZDHC MRSL include, but are not limited to,
cleaners, adhesives, paints, inks, detergents, dyes, colourants, auxiliaries, coatings and finishing
agents used during raw material production, wet processing, process machinery maintenance,
wastewater treatment, sanitation, and pest control. ZDHC MRSL limits apply to substances in
commercially available formulations, not those from earlier stages of chemical synthesis.
The ZDHC Foundation Roadmap to Zero Programme would like to acknowledge the vital role of
the experts comprising the MRSL Advisory Council who independently and objectively evaluated
the proposed compound additions to the MRSL and made the decision on the compounds added
to this version of the ZDHC MRSL.
2 Purpose
The ZDHC MRSL offers brands and suppliers a single, harmonised list of chemical substances banned
from intentional use during manufacturing and related processes in supply chains of the textile,
apparel, and footwear (including leather and rubber) industries (the Industry).
Version 2.0 applies to textiles, leather, rubber, foam and adhesives, recognising that these materials
use different processes. Filters for each material ensure limits reflect the processes.

3 Notes
The information in this ZDHC MRSL V2.0 is provided for information only. Whilst ZDHC takes every reasonable
effort to make sure that the information is as accurate as possible, ZDHC makes no claims, promises, or
guarantees about the accuracy, completeness, or adequacy of the contents of this document.
"Meeting the requirements of the ZDHC MRSL V2.0 does not
a) replace applicable national environmental or workplace safety restrictions. Worker exposure to chemical
substances listed in this document, along with other hazardous substances, must not exceed occupational
exposure limits
b) guarantee compliance with or take the place of legal or regulatory requirements relating to the use, storage,
and transport of chemical products."
The ZDHC MRSL V2.0 does not replace legal or brand-specific restrictions on hazardous substances in finished
products, including the material components of them.
4 DISCLAIMERS
In no event will ZDHC (and/or any related ZDHC majority-owned legal entities) or the Directors or staff thereof
be liable and ZDHC expressly disclaims any liability of any kind to any party for any loss, damage, or disruption
caused
a) by errors or omissions, whether such errors or omissions result from negligence, accident, or any other
cause and/or
b) from any use, decision made, action taken, or any other kind of reliance on the ZDHC MRSL V2.0 by a reader
or user of it and/or
c) for any results obtained or not obtained from the use of the ZDHC MRSL V2.0
d) by any updates to the ZDHC MRSL V2.0

5 ZDHC MRSL Chapters
5.1 Chapter 1: ZDHC MRSL

This applies to chemical formulations and substances used during the creation and wet processing
of textile fibres, and during the creation and processing of (coated) fabrics, leather, rubber, foam
and adhesives.
Group A: Supplier Guidance

Group A substances are banned from intentional use in facilities that process raw materials and
manufacture finished products.
Group B: Formulation Limit

Group B substances are restricted to concentration limits in chemical formulations commercially
available from chemical suppliers. These limits ban intentional use while allowing for reasonable
expected manufacturing impurities, which should be consistently achievable by responsible
chemical manufacturers.
5.2 Chapter 2: ZDHC MRSL Candidate List

Found in Chapter 2 of the ZDHC MRSL. Proposed ZDHC MRSL additions can meet listing criteria, as
described in the Principles and Procedures, yet lack safer alternatives at scale. Including such
substances on the Candidate List encourages the innovation of alternatives.
5.3 Chapter 3: ZDHC Archived Substances

Archived substances, or those without strong evidence of current use in Industry, but with clear
evidence of historical use.
5.4 Process for ZDHC MRSL Revision

The ZDHC MRSL is a living document. It is updated as needed to expand the materials and processes
covered and to add substances that should be phased out of the value chain. The Principles and
Procedures document contains and explains the process used to update the ZDHC MRSL. Part of this
process allows anyone to submit suggested changes to it. This includes the limits for existing
compounds, the addition of new compounds, or delisting compounds through the ZDHC MRSL
Submission Platform, which will be launched in the coming months.
ZDHC MRSL Update Principles and Procedures
5.5 Transition Period

After the release of a new version of the ZDHC MRSL a transition period applies. This lets the
Industry prepare for the implementation of the new version. The current transition period is twelve
months, beginning on January 1st 2020. During this time, both versions of the ZDHC MRSL remain
active and it’s possible to certify against them.

Dyes – Azo (Forming Restricted Amines)
Azo dyes and pigments are colourants that incorporate one or several azo groups (-N=N-) bound with aromatic
compounds. Thousands of azo dyes exist, but only those that degrade to form the listed cleavable amines are
restricted. Azo dyes that release these amines are regulated and should no longer be used for the dyeing of textiles.
Please find a non-exhaustive list of dyes which can form restricted amines in the appendix.

Dyes – Disperse (Sensitising)

Disperse dyes are a class of water- insoluble dyes that penetrate the fibre system of synthetic or manufactured
fibres and are held in place by physical forces without forming chemical bonds. Disperse dyes are used in synthetic
fibre (e.g. polyester, acetate, polyamide). Restricted disperse dyes are suspected of causing allergic reactions and
should no longer be used for dyeing of textiles.

Perfluorinated and Polyfluorinated Chemicals (PFCs)

Durable water, oil and stain repellent finishes based on long-chain PFC’s are banned from intentional use. There are
two methods of manufacture of PFCs referred to as electrofluorination and telomerisation. PFC’s made by
the electrofluorination method have by-products associated with them called perfluoroalkyl sulphonates with the
most common being the C8 species Perfluorooctane sulphonate (PFOS). The deliberate use of any PFCs made by
electrofluorination with a chain length of C6 or above is not permitted. The detection of any PFOS analogue as
where the chain length is 6 units or longer will trigger a failure [i.e. PFHS and above]. These types of PFCs are
typically used in home textiles. PFC’s made by the telomerisation method have by-products associated with them
called perfluorocarboxylic acids with the most common being the C8 species perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). The
deliberate use of any PFCs made by telomerisation with a chain length of C8 or above is restricted. ZDHC plans to
further restrict the use of PFCs in future revisions and details can be found in the candidate list is not permitted.
The detection of any PFOA analogue as where the chain length is 8 units or longer will trigger a failure (i.e. PFOA
and above). These types of PFCs are typically used in clothing and footwear.
PFOA and PFOS may be present as unintended by-products in long-chain commercial water, oil and stain repellent
agents. PFOA also may be in used in the production for polymers like polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).

Phthalates – including all other esters of ortho-phthalic acid
Esters of ortho-phthalic acid (phthalates) are a class of organic compounds commonly added to plastics to increase
flexibility. They sometimes are used to facilitate moulding of plastic by decreasing its melting temperature.
Phthalates can be found in:
- Flexible plastic components (e.g. PVC)
- Print pastes
- Adhesives
- Plastic buttons
- Plastic sleevings
- Polymeric coatings

In the list below the formulation limit for As, Cd, Hg, Pb and Cr VI apply to all types of formulation. Where there is a

The formulation limits for Sb, Cr, Ba, Se, Sn, Ni, Cu, Co and Ag only apply to dye and/or pigment formulations. Any
differences between limits for dyes and pigments are indicated in the formulation limit column.
The limits for the heavy metals do not apply to colourants containing a listed metal as an inherent compositional
part (e.g. metal-complex colorants, the double salts of certain cationic colourants or extenders like barium sulfate).
When using any colourant with listed metals as an inherent compositional part, wet processors need to be aware of
the need to comply with brand RSL limits with respect to extractable metals from dyed materials and they also need
to be aware of the metal limits in the ZDHC wastewater guidelines. Where RSL and/or wastewater issues are
observed wet processors should discuss this with supply chain partners.
For the listed exceptions, laboratory tests to determine separately metal contaminants that are not bound into a
colourant (free metals) are under development.
Although typically associated with leather tanning, chromium VI also may be used in the dyeing of wool (after the
chroming process).

624-49-7 Dimethylfumarate DMFu must not be deliberately used in any formulations. It is intended to
(DMFu) publish details of a universally agreed, robust test method and maximum
allowable limit in version 3 of the MRSL. It should be noted that DMFu remains
illegal in articles placed on the EU market above 0.1 ppm so testing for DMfu in
formulations using methods currently recommended by laboratories is strongly
advised, with any detections resulting in an investigation into deliberate use at all
stages in the supply chain.
