We are committed to the global world and the various certifications we hold are proof of this.
GOTS
GOTS
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is an internationally recognised standard for organic textiles. The standard aims to establish globally recognised requirements that cover the organic status of textiles, from the harvesting of raw materials to labelling, via environmentally and socially responsible production processes. The result for the end consumer is a reliable guarantee.
OCS
OCS
The Organic Content Standard (OCS) applies to any non-food product that contains from 5 to 100% organic material. It certifies the presence and quantity of organic material in a final product. Additionally, the OCS traces the flow of a raw material from its origin to the end product. This process is then certified by an accredited third party. The objective is to increase the production of organic crops.
GRS
GRS
The GRS (Global Recycled Standard) is an international, voluntary, tracking and verification certificate for the use of recycled materials in a final product. It applies to the entire supply chain, social and environmental practices and restrictions on chemical products. It is designed to encourage more assertive labelling, by leveraging innovation, transparency and improved information for the benefit of consumers.
BCI
BCI
The Better CottonInitiative (BCI)-a global non-profit organisation-aims to raise awareness and offer guidance to cotton producers, employees and production chain entities regarding the importance of labour relations and social responsibility. This is the world’s largest cotton sustainability programme. BCI prioritises the continuous improvement of good production practices, fair labour relations, transparency to the market and cotton traceability.
