OEKO-TEX® Standard 100
Harmful chemicals have no place against your skin, or in the environment. We use factories with OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification.
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified ensures that products are free from dangerous substances—chemicals like pesticides, heavy metals, formaldehyde, and undesirable surfactants. The certification is designed to ensure the effect the dyeing industry has on the environment is minimised and the garments are safe for consumers as well as the people who make and sell them.
HOW
Colouring our world, safely
OEKO-TEX® is one of the world’s best known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances. OEKO-TEX® standards enable everyone to make responsible decisions and protect natural resources. Safety and social responsibility is important to us, and to our customers, which is why 100% our Bangladesh suppliers and 95% of our China Dye houses are certified by OEKO-TEX® Standard 100.
TODAY
A guiding force for consumer safety
Established in 1992, the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is a testing certification for numerous harmful chemicals, even if they are not yet legally regulated. The certification of products in accordance with OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is that all parts of an article meet the required criteria. Extensive product checks and regular company on-site visits also ensure that the industry has a globally sustainable awareness of the responsible use of chemicals.
