OekoTex Confidence in textiles

Confidence in textiles tested for harmful substances

Often known as Oeko-Tex standards

It is a global testing and accreditation scheme for the screening of harmful substances within consumer textiles. It is the leading label for textiles that have been screened for harmful substances.  The Oeko-Tex certificate issued by the relevant institute or responsible certification centre is valid for 12 months. It verifies that the articles listed have been successfully tested according to Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and satisfy the requirements of a common product class.

Harmful substances banned under the Oeko-tex Standard 100 include:

• Specifically banned AZO dyes
• Carcinogenic and allergy inducing dyes
• Formaldehyde
• Pesticides
• Chlorinated Phenols
• Chloro-organic benzenes and toluenes
• Extractable heavy metals
• pH value
• Phthalates in baby articles
• Emission of Volatile components
• Odour
• Organotin compounds (TBT) and (DBT)

Within the certification process there are three product classes which are relevant to the products we supply:

Product class one: Textiles and textile toys for babies and small children up to the age of three. Cotton Roots embroidery threads meets Oeko-Tex 100 in this the highest product class.

Product class two: Textiles which, when used as intended, have a large part of their surface in direct contact with the skin, e.g. polos, sweatshirts, formal shirts and blouses etc.

Product class three: Textiles which, when used as intended, do not come into contact with the skin, or only have a small part of their surface in contact with the skin, e.g. jackets and coats
