OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN
OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN stands for products that can be traced along the entire supply chain (“traceability”) and at the same time comply with social and ecological criteria.
The offer
OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN tests and certifies all areas of the textile supply chain in three steps:
1. testing of the products for harmful substances with the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 (for textiles) or the OEKO-TEX® LEATHER STANDARD (for leather products) with regard to harmful substances.
2. testing of the manufacturing processes for their environmental friendliness.
3. testing of workplaces for safety and social compatibility, chemical management, environmental performance and quality management through OEKO-TEX® STeP certification.
Products labeled with OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN can also be tracked along the entire supply chain by consumers using the OEKO-TEX® Label Check. Based on the unique product ID and the QR code, transparent tracking is made possible.
