GOTS
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) is recognised as the world’s leading processing standard for textiles made from organic fibers.
It defines high-level environmental criteria along the entire organic textiles supply chain and requires compliance with social criteria as well.
OEKO-TEX 100
Oeko-Tex 100 Standard comprehensively addresses the Human Ecology component of textile products.
It evaluates and screens for any harmful substances present within processed textiles, which are intended to come into contact with consumers.
Fairwear Foundation
The Fair Wear Foundation (FWF) is an independent, non-profit organisation that works with companies and factories to improve labour conditions for garment workers.
FWF keeps track of the improvements made by the companies it works with.
And through sharing expertise, social dialogue and strengthening industrial relations, FWF increases the effectiveness of the efforts made by companies.
Fairtrade
Fairtrade is an alternative approach to conventional trade and is based on a partnership between producers and consumers.
When farmers can sell their cotton on Fairtrade terms, it provides them with a better deal and improved terms of trade.
This allows them the opportunity to improve their lives and plan for their future.
