GLOBAL STANDARD FOR ORGANIC TEXTILES (GOTS)
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the leading international standard for the processing of organic fibers. It encompasses both ecological and social criteria and is supported by independent certification of the entire textile supply chain. The standard also specifies which other fibers may be combined with organic fibers. Organic Content Standard (OCS) The Organic Content Standard (OCS) is a certification for non-food products that confirms the presence of organic matter in the final product. It tracks the entire supply chain from source to final product.
Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) and the Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) are international, voluntary standards that establish the criteria for certifying recycled content and the corresponding supply chain. Their common goal is to promote the use of recycled materials. The GRS also includes additional requirements regarding social and environmental aspects and chemical restrictions. Ecocert COSMOS Ecocert's COSMOS standard ensures that ingredients come predominantly from natural sources, with the exception of a limited list of ingredients permitted in small quantities. On average, Ecocert-certified products contain approximately 99% ingredients of natural origin. The standard verifies the composition, processing, and packaging of products and guarantees their environmental friendliness and safety. Attention is paid to the preservation of biodiversity and natural resources. Other criteria include the prohibition of GMOs and petrochemical ingredients, including parabens, phenoxyethanol, synthetic fragrances and dyes.
The OEKO-TEX® certification is one of the most prestigious labels for textile safety worldwide and confirms that certified products do not contain harmful chemicals. Effective references to this certification can be found in the product descriptions of the corresponding items. We also use OEKO-TEX®-certified ink and thread for our embroidery designs.
