SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a Consumer Compact article looking at the issue of harmful substances such as PFAS and BPA being found in clothing.  

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and bisphenol A (BPA) are increasingly being regulated around the world. Recent studies in North America have found levels of both of these toxic chemicals in clothing that exceed regulatory requirements.

SGS’s Consumer Compact article looks at the risks associated with PFAS and BPA, the results of the studies and the options available to manufacturers and suppliers looking to operate effectively in competitive markets.

SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a Consumer Compact article looking at the problem of high return rates in e-commerce and considers the benefits of taking an AI-enabled approach to website data improvements.

The US National Retail Federation estimates return costs of USD 166 million for every USD 1 billion in sales. In 2021, US businesses were estimated to have lost USD 761 billion in lost sales. What can retailers do to improve customer satisfaction, reduce return rates, increase conversion rates and ensure regulatory compliance?

SGS’s Consumer Compact article looks at the issues surrounding low conversion rates and high return rates. It urges a rethink in the way online retailers operate – from the perspective of the customer – and the benefits of taking an AI-enabled approach to finding bad product data.

Increasing Demand for Water & Sewage Treatments Facilitates Market Growth

Although 70% of the Earth is covered with water, it is still a diminishing resource. Besides, the total usable freshwater supply for humans, as well as the ecosystem, is only 0.5%. Since the world population and their demands are continually rising, the need for water treatment and water purification is anticipated to depict growing trends. Activated carbon is a vital part of the water purification process; it removes contaminants like dyestuffs and color compounds, adsorbable organic halogens (AOX), non-biodegradable organic compounds (COD), chlorinated or halogenated organic compounds, and others.

Wood: Leading Raw Material

Wood-based activated carbon is essentially produced from designated kinds of sawdust and wood, either by phosphoric acid activation or steam. The majority of pores in this carbon type are in the mesopore and macropore regions, ideal for liquids and water decolorization. Moreover, wood-based carbon is mainly used in wastewater and surface water filters to effectively eliminate organic impurities and larger molecular structures, including Geosmin and MIB (2-Methylisboreneol).

Asia-Pacific to Lead & Dominate the Global Market by 2032

The Asia-Pacific activated carbon market is projected to observe rapid growth over the forecast years, owing to the rising demand for water treatment applications. Likewise, with significant industrialization in developing countries like China and India, activated carbon consumption across diverse applications, such as mercury control and air purification, is continually increasing.

The activated carbon market is consolidated among key enterprises and fragmented among native firms. Thus, the degree of industrial rivalry within the activated carbon market is anticipated to be high over the forecast period. Key companies in the market include Osaka Gas Chemicals, Cabot Corporation, Kuraray Corporation, etc.
