What is Oeko-Tex® Standard 100?

Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 is a globally recognised certification system that evaluates and regulates textile products for their safety and sustainability. 

Certification means that products have been independantly tested and are free from harmful substances and chemicals that can have a negative effect on our health and the environment.

Tests are run by independently accredited labs across the world, who thoroughly and methodically test every minute detail of the garment, including the fabric and all accessories, buttons and finishings - down to the last thread!

Approved garments are given a unique QR code to print on their label, allowing consumers to check that certification is legitimate. That's right, you can scan your garment and ensure it's certified.
