If a textile product carries the STANDARD 100 label, you can be assured that every component of the product, such as threads, buttons, and other accessories, has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore ecologically sound. Testing is conducted by our independent OEKO-TEX partner institute based on our extensive OEKO-TEX criteria catalog. The tests take into account a large number of regulated and unregulated substances that may pose a risk to human health. In many cases, the STANDARD 100 limit values meet national and international requirements. The criteria catalog is updated at least annually and expanded with new scientific knowledge or legal requirements. It’s not easy for manufacturers and customers to keep a daily overview of the legal situation regarding hazardous substances. Our experts from the OEKO-TEX institute do this for you.
