How will the facility's performance on the ZDHC MMCF Module be reflected in the 2025 Canopy Hot Button Report?
Following the ZDHC MMCF Guidelines Industry Standard Implementation Approach V2.2, the Sustainable chemical management criteria of the Hot Button Report (2025 Edition) will focus on viscose and modal production facilities that meet the Canopy C1 criteria by having access to the ZDHC MMCF Module and achieving the Progressive Level in all areas (C2, C3, and C4).
Additionally, for the 2025 edition, the Sustainable chemical management criteria will also apply to viscose filament yarn (VFY), lyocell, and acetate fibre facilities. These facilities must meet C1 criteria by ensuring access to the ZDHC MMCF Module.
