Our HSE commitments
- People first. Nobody should be hurt making or handling our products. We plan work so that hazards are controlled at the source, and we provide the training and protective equipment each task needs.
- Know the hazards. We keep current safety data for every raw material and product, and share it with employees, transporters and customers.
- Prevent releases. We store and handle chemicals so that spills are contained and cleaned up quickly, and we keep waste out of drains and soil.
- Comply and improve. We meet the legal requirements that apply to our operations and review incidents and near misses to prevent repeats.
Safer products by design
- No heavy-metal pigments in masterbatch. FLYBATCH contains no lead, cadmium or hexavalent-chromium pigments and uses RoHS-conform pigment selection.
- Styrene-free pastes. FLYCHROMA UP colour pastes add no monomer vapour at the mixing station; they are also phthalate-free.
- Halogen- and antimony-free additives. FLYADD functional batches are halogen- and antimony-free by default.
- APEO-free and formaldehyde-free options. Our water-based dispersions and textile auxiliaries are APEO-free, with formaldehyde-free binder versions.
- No restricted azo dyes. Dyes in FLYDYE do not release restricted aromatic amines (REACH Annex XVII, entry 43).
- Cosmetic GMP. FLYCOS dispersions are made at a partner working to ISO 22716.
Safer handling for customers
- Dust-free forms: FLYCRETE granules and slurries, FLYPULP liquid dyes and pre-dispersed pastes in place of dry powder.
- Water-based coatings and dispersions wherever the application allows.
- A GHS/CLP safety data sheet for every sold grade, with classification calculated from its actual composition.
