H&M group Restricted Substance List – Apparel |Accessories | Footwear | Home Interior Textile Products
Valid for all brands in H&M group GPCD-000072
General
Due to concerns for the health of customers, as well as for the environment and working conditions, H&M group has established H&M group Chemical Restrictions for all
products. H&M group Chemical Restrictions consists of several parts, covering manufacturing (Manufacturing Restricted Substances List, MRSL) and specific product types
(Restricted Substances List, RSL); this document concerns Chemical Restrictions for Apparel, Accessories, Footwear and Home Interior Textile Products. Each limit in H&M
group Chemical Restrictions is valid for homogeneous parts of the concerned product if not otherwise stated.
IMPORTANT: In case of undated test method, the latest version of the test method is always valid. Most test methods are left undated to encourage that the latest
versions are implemented as soon as possible upon their publication.
In addition to this part of the H&M group Chemical Restrictions, production of Apparel, Accessories, Footwear and Home Interior Textile Products must also fulfill the MRSL.
Furthermore, if a product is sold in a packaging, it must also comply with the RSL for Packaging. These documents can be found on the Supplier Portal as well as on
www.hm.com/chemical-restrictions.
The official and valid version of this document is in English. Any translation of the document is prepared for reference only. H&M accepts no liability for any mistakes
done in the translation.
Commitment
By accepting H&M Standard Purchase Conditions, the Supplier commits to comply with H&M Chemical Restrictions. It is the Supplier’s responsibility to assure compliance
with H&M group Chemical Restrictions and to inform all their upstream suppliers and subcontractors about its content.
By accepting H&M Standard Purchase Conditions, each Supplier acknowledges that H&M reserves the right to:
 Inspect and test any product, any part of production and/or packaging, by any listed or appropriate method, at any time or at any stage of production.
 Cancel the Order, or, if the products are already delivered, return the products to the Supplier if the product, production and/or packaging do not correspond to
the H&M group Chemical Restrictions.
 Hold the Supplier responsible for any damage caused by the ordered product if the product, production and/or packaging do not correspond to the H&M group
Chemical Restrictions.
 Receive Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for all substances and preparations (dyes, colorants, solvents, chemicals etc.) used in the production of a specific Order.
In the case of contradictory test results, H&M test results will prevail.

Concentration Limit The substance must not be present in the product at concentrations above this limit.
Not Detected The substance must not be present in the finished product at concentrations above the analytical reporting limit.
Usage ban The substance must not be used in production and it must not be added to the product 2.
Homogeneous Uniform composition throughout, i.e. a material that cannot be mechanically disjointed into different materials.
Kinematic Limit Describes how fast a fluid is spread on a flat surface in relation to its mass, i.e. weight.
Reporting limit Describes the level of detection times a safety factor selected by the laboratory that ensures repeatability and reproducibility.
Self-declaration All chemicals used should have Safety Data Sheets, SDS, showing that no restricted substance is included.
Upon request supplier must be able to present the SDS for the chemicals used in the production of the requested product. Other
supporting documents such as certificates from subcontractors etc. can also be considered as a part of the SDS.
Soft Home Interior Products All soft interior/decoration products, e.g., beddings, mats, carpets, towels, pillows, curtains, shower curtains, etc.
