Color Center, S.A. in collaboration with Leitat Technological Center is currently developing a new range of ECO-Designed water and oil repellents (WOR) for the textile finishing based on new (nano)materials. The new product range will fulfil the current directives and the most demanding standards existing today by offering WOR finishings PFCAs-free (perfluorocarboxylic acids) and FTOHs-free (fluorotelomer alcohols) in line with the demands of leading environmental organizations, some governments as well as major retailers. The research work is being conducted under the project ECO-WOR. This project has been granted by NUCLIS d’INNOVACIÓ TECNOLÒGICA, a credit line designed by Generalitat de Catalunya (the catalan regional government) and managed by ACCIÓ.
