ABSTRACT
Aims & Objectives: The objective of this study was to analyze the presence of carcinogenic elements in fabrics and its harmful effects on human beings with the aim to develop a uniform and standardized policy in terms of safety for the health workers and users. Method: The different types of fabrics were collected from the different textile industries of Gujarat and Rajasthan and were analyzed by standard techniques for the presence of heavy metals and prohibited amines. Result: An analysis of the results obtained show that amount of heavy metals and prohibited amines present in fabrics and garments were exceeding the normal limits and was harmful to the workers, end users and to the environment. Conclusion: Since the universal demand for safe fabrics and garments is increasing, the higher amount of carcinogenic agents like heavy metals, amines are absolutely unacceptable and manufacturers should improve their products to meet those growing demands.
