We comply with international standard for health and safety
In every country in which it operates production facilities, the company complies with the requisite international and local laws in respect of health and safety practices. Its factories are audited by its customers on a regular basis to ensure Texon's code of conduct is compliant with their own stringent standards and safety requirements.
In addition, the company observes the international standard for chemical and substance usage where there is a risk that these could cause harm. Texon keeps continually abreast of the updated list of chemicals and substances that are identified as being a potential risk. Only materials and chemicals that are considered to be safe to use are involved in the development process of new products. To comply with this standard, Texon's products are regularly tested by independent test houses such as SATRA. In the unlikely event that any substances have a potential risk, Texon phases out or removes any possible harmful substance in its products.
We offer environmentally sustainable products and recycling programs

- Re-using materials which would otherwise be sent to landfill.
- Reducing the impact of manufacturing technologies and commercial operations on the environment while offering a mutual benefit to customers and suppliers.
To achieve these goals, we strive towards:
- Developing innovative technologies in using post consumer waste streams to produce natural fibers.
- Recycling post production waste in all its manufacturing units
- Offering recycling programs to key customers and suppliers by collecting production waste by licensed treatment companies, and recycling it back into products.
