SGS Helps Clothing Manufacturers Ensure Compliance with Global PFAS and BPA Regulations

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.

 

Read the original Consumer Compact article, ‘Concerns Raised Over PFAS and BPA in Clothing’.

Truum Helps Online Retailers Reduce Return Rates and Increase Customer Satisfaction

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.

 

Read the original Consumer Compact article, ‘Turning Browsers into Satisfied Online Shoppers’.
