The GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) label is the leading organic textile label of the world. It contains ecological and social criteria, and provides third-party certification to the whole supply-chain. It has two levels:
- Label-grade 1: ‚organic‘: ≥ 95% certified organic fibres, ≤ 5 % non-organic natural or synthetic fibres
- Label-grade 2: ‚made with X% organic‘: ≥ 70% certified organic fibres, ≤ 30 % non organic fibres, but a maximum of 10% synthetic fibres (respective 25% for socks, leggings and sportswear), as long as the raw materials used are not from certified organic origin, a sustainable forestry management program or recycled
