Oeko-Tex Made in Green

MADE IN GREEN is a label for textile and leather products. It builds on the standard OEKO-TEX certification, which tests the finished product for harmful substances, by also checking how and where the product was made. The standard cover how facilities manage chemicals, wastewater, emissions, water, energy and waste, as well as their working conditions. Each labelled product can be traced back to the manufacturing facilities
