Presentations:
Tue Apr 4th | 12-12:45 PM (PST) : Quantifying the Performance of a System with Several Parts
Most solutions are made up of several components that work together. Testing the performance of each part can help with comparisons - testing whole systems is the only way to verify results. For example, winter athletes don’t stay warm, dry and protected with just one garment. Rather, they use layers that perform different functions. Data for each layer is not enough. What if the waterproofing in one layer negates the breathability of another? Join us to examine the use, the user and their situation when developing and making claims.
Wed Apr 5th | 1-2:30 PM (PST) : PFAS – Issues and Industry Resources
Why do PFAS pose such a risk to people, the planet and brands? How did we get here? And what can we do about it? Join these technical, brand and legal experts to find out.
