GOTS - Global Organic Textile Standard

GOTS is known as the world´s leading processing standard for a globally sustainable and controllable production chain. The standard defines high-level criteria along the entire production cycle, from a quality content of at least 70% organic fibres, to ecological and social conditions.

OCS - Organic Content Standard

The aim of the OCS 100 is to accurately measure and ensure the ecological content of materials throughout the production chain. The yarns, fabrics and finished textiles certified with the OCS 100 standard are made of at least 95% organic material, which is traded transparently from farmer to spinner, garment factory and finally to the customer.
