Green Theme Technologies launched a new PFAS-free and anti-wicking textile finish. The new finish arrives after the "forever chemicals" were banned across the United States and several European countries. Dubbed EMPEL, the product was recently tested and certified as PFAS-free by Bureau Veritas.
EMPEL uses no "forever chemicals" in its formula yet retains its water-repellency and anti-wicking capabilities. Green Theme Technologies is currently working with several footwear companies in the sports and outdoor markets. The brands are seeking superior anti-wicking and stain protection while remaining sustainable, and the EMPEL finish can meet these needs. Based on recent projections, Green Theme Technologies' new EMPEL textile finish solution will be available to the public as early as 2023.
According to John Frazier, "Green Theme Technology is at the forefront of apparel, footwear, and textile innovation, not just because they are utilizing better chemistry, but because of how they are applying it."
