Global Organic Textile Standard
GOTS is recognised as the leading global processing standard for textiles made from organic fibres. Certification sets the bar high for compliance with social and environmental criteria throughout the supply chain. The standard GOTS requirement is that at least 95% of the fibres in the garment are organic, and that the organic fibres must be separated from conventional fibres throughout the manufacturing process. This means that whenever you buy GOTS-certified textiles, you can be sure that the products do not contain harmful chemicals or other substances, that they are high-quality organic textiles and that everyone involved in making the product has taken social and environmental responsibility.

OEKO-TEX® - Trust in textiles
OEKO-TEX® is your guarantee that the clothing does not contain harmful substances. At ID®, we have styles certified with 3 different OEKO-TEX® certifications: annex 4, product class 2 & annex 6, product class 1. The difference is that annex 6 places further stricter requirements on the garment’s content of substances that are harmful to health and the environment. The third certification, STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, concerns organic products. This means that you are guaranteed that the cotton is organic, as well as GMO-free. That is, the cotton is made without the use of genetic engineering and is verified by third-party testing.
