OEKO-TEX Certification

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 tests every component of your textile product, including fabric, threads, zippers, buttons, and dyes, for harmful chemicals. Western fashion brands and retailers (H&M, Zara, Next) list it as a supplier requirement. If you're a hosiery, knitwear, or fabric exporter losing European buyer conversations because you do not have OEKO-TEX, this is the certification to get. We arrange testing through OEKO-TEX approved labs and handle the certification.
