On March 11, 2025, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published ISO 16179:2025 Footwear — Critical substances potentially present in footwear and footwear components — Determination of organotin compounds in footwear materials.
This document specifies a test method for the qualification and quantification of organotin compounds by applying gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. This test method is applicable to all types of footwear materials except metal hardware (see ISO/TR 16178).
This second edition, which has been technically revised, cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/TS 16179:2012).
