What does a GOTS certificate guarantee?
The standard guarantees all of our fabrics produced and printed in accordance with the highest ecological and social criteria. Such a certificate tells you that a company cares for both environmental and social matters.
Highest quality organic textiles
Certificate can be applied to fibres, woven and jersey fabrics or final products such as clothing, accessories or home textiles. The “Organic” certificate can be applied to products made from at least 95% certified ecological fibres. Products made using at least 70% of certified ecological fibres are eligible for the “Made with (X%) organic” certificate.
