Oeko-Tex® Certificate 1604019
The label "Confidence in Textiles - Tested for harmful substances according to OEKOTEX® Standard 100" is used to mark textile products that have demonstrated they pose no threat to health in comprehensive laboratory tests carried out by independent institutes. The quality mark is only issued to products of which all components are found to be free of harmful substances.
Among these are outer fabrics, such as weaves and knits, and interlinings, including sewing and embroidery threads, but also accessories made of metal or synthetics (e.g. zips, buttons, etc.). Specially applied coatings, such as those found on non-slip socks are also tested. OEKO-TEX® tests for harmful substances include more than 100 different parameters and go far beyond legal requirements.

Responsible Down Standard Certified
The Responsible Down Standard is an independent, voluntary global standard (founded by the NGO Textile Exchange), which means that companies can choose to certify their products to the RDS, even if there is no legislation requiring them to do so. The RDS was developed and revised over three years, with the input of animal welfare groups, industry experts, brands and retailers. The standard recognizes the best practices in animal welfare, and excludes those that violate the animal's well being.
