Abstract: In the present study printed fabric samples collected from various small scale printing units were tested for some Eco parameters like formaldehyde, heavy metals, pH, and pentachlorophenol and banned amines. Results obtained showed that these fabric samples were not detected for banned amines, pentachlorophenol and some of the heavy metals like Cd, Hg and Ni whereas the level of Ph, formaldehyde and heavy metals like zinc and chromium in all tested printed fabric samples were also within the permissible limit. However the concentration of copper and lead were found higher than the permissible limits as per Oeko-Tex standard.
