Development trend of fluorine free waterproofing agent industry: green environmental protection becomes the core direction
Against the backdrop of the global textile and chemical industry's green transformation, the waterproofing additive industry is undergoing a structural upgrade from traditional fluorinated products to non fluorinated solutions. With the continuous tightening of environmental regulations in various countries and the increasing requirements of downstream brands for supply chain ecological standards, fluorine free waterproofing agents have gradually become the mainstream choice in the market due to their environmentally friendly, safe and compliant characteristics. The industry as a whole is steadily developing towards low emissions, high performance, and full chain greening.
The upgrading of downstream industries such as textiles and leather in China has also put forward higher requirements for waterproof and protective materials. On the one hand, the demand for durability and washability of waterproof performance continues to increase in outdoor, workwear, shoe materials and other fields; On the other hand, ecological security has become an important threshold for product access, OEKO-TEX ® International standards such as ecological textile certification and ZDHC zero emission list of harmful chemicals are becoming important passes for enterprises to expand their markets. This also forces upstream additive companies to increase their R&D investment and find a balance between environmentally friendly formulas and application performance.
Xiamen Hehe Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 2004 and is located in Xiamen Torch High tech Park. It is one of the earliest domestic enterprises to layout the fluorine free waterproofing agent track. As the first enterprise in Fujian Province to promise not to produce fluorine-containing products, Hehe Technology has always kept up with the industry's environmental protection trends, focusing on the research and development and production of high-performance fluorine free fabrics and leather waterproofing agents. It has successively developed many industry-leading products such as fluorine free anti-skid yarns, fluorine free solvent resistant coatings, and high fastness fluorine free coatings, filling multiple technical gaps in the field of fluorine free waterproofing agents in China.
At present, Hehe Technology's products have passed OEKO-TEX certification ® International ecological textile certification, compliant with ZDHC MRSL 3.1 standard, with performance reaching international advanced level, can be widely applied in various scenarios such as outdoor sportswear, functional workwear, shoe materials, home textiles, leather products, etc. With the accelerated pace of green transformation in the industry, enterprises with core technologies and compliance qualifications will have a broader market space, and fluorine free waterproofing technology will also be replaced and popularized in more segmented fields.
In the future, with the deepening of the green development concept of domestic manufacturing industry, the fluorine free waterproofing agent industry will usher in dual opportunities of technological iteration and market expansion. Hehe Technology will also continue to deeply cultivate the field of fluorine free waterproofing, respond to industry trends with technological innovation, provide more safe, environmentally friendly, and high-performance waterproof protection solutions for downstream industries, and help promote the ecological upgrading of the entire industry chain.
