Global Organic Textile Standard - GOTS
GOTS-certified organic cotton stands for the highest quality and sustainability in the textile industry. GOTS, the abbreviation for Global Organic Textile Standard, is a globally recognized certification system for textiles made from organically produced natural fibers.
Using GOTS-certified organic cotton offers numerous benefits. Firstly, it is grown without the use of harmful chemicals or pesticides, which protects both the environment and people's health. The sustainable cultivation method also promotes the preservation of biodiversity and the protection of natural resources.
The GOTS standard also ensures that the entire production chain - from the harvest of the cotton to the finished textile product - meets strict ecological and social criteria. This includes, among other things, the responsible use of water and energy, fair working conditions for workers and transparent and traceable supply chains.
Products made from GOTS-certified organic cotton are not only environmentally friendly, but also of high quality. The cotton is soft, breathable and skin-friendly, making it ideal for clothing and home textiles. They also meet high social and ethical standards, which supports conscious and responsible consumer behavior.
You can recognize GOTS certified products by the separate labeling on the product under Materials & Care.
Global Recycled Standard – GRS
Garments that are GRS certified represent high standards in terms of sustainability and environmental protection. GRS stands for Global Recycled Standard and is a globally recognized certification system for recycled materials in the textile industry.
GRS certification guarantees that a high percentage of the materials used in the garments come from recycled sources. These can be recycled fibers such as polyester, cotton or nylon, obtained from used clothing, plastic bottles or industrial waste. By using recycled materials, the need for new raw materials is reduced and waste is reused.
GRS-certified garments are characterized by their environmentally friendly properties. The production process is carefully monitored to ensure strict environmental standards are met. This includes the use of environmentally friendly dyes and chemicals as well as minimizing water and energy consumption.
In addition, GRS certification places great emphasis on compliance with social standards. This includes fair working conditions, appropriate wages and compliance with human rights along the entire supply chain. GRS-certified clothing therefore also stands for social responsibility and fair working practices.
GRS certified products are marked separately on the product under Materials & Care.
