OEKO-TEX® Standard 100: A SIGN OF CONFIDENCE IN TEXTILES
"Trust in textiles" - under this slogan, since 1992, the system of independent tests for the content of harmful substances according to the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 guarantees the safety of textile products for health.
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is an independent verification and certification system for raw materials, intermediate and final textile products at all stages of processing.
OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is independently tested for harmful substances by the International OEKO-TEX® Association, a union of fifteen renowned textile research and control institutes in Europe and Japan, with offices and advisory offices in more than 60 countries.
TIROTEX Textile Company is certified according to Product Class I and Class II from the existing four classes in this standard:
Product Class I: textiles for babies and children under 3 years of age (clothing, soft toys, bedding and accessories, etc.)
Product Class II: textiles in direct contact with the skin (underwear, bedding, T-shirts, etc.)
A particularly important condition for the certification of textile products according to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is that without exception, all components of one product must meet the required criteria. For example, in addition to the main fabric, also sewing threads, inserts, padding, etc must meet the above mentioned standards.
