The GOTS quality mark

Fresk believes it is important to deal responsibly with our living environment. All products are made with care and attention, designed in the Netherlands and sustainably produced in Europe. Many Fresk products have been awarded the GOTS quality mark for organic fibres. To obtain the GOTS quality mark, Fresk must meet strict requirements.

What does this label mean?

The GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) quality mark is a textile processing standard for organic fibres. The quality mark is recognized worldwide. It is only awarded after independent certification for the entire textile chain. It gives the customer certainty about the biological status of the product.

What is GOTS useful for?

GOTS sets worldwide requirements that guarantee the biological status of textiles. The end user can be sure that the organic product meets those requirements. It is nice for textile treatment companies and manufacturers that they can market their organic fabrics and clothing with a globally accepted quality mark. The GOTS quality mark gives the customer certainty, but also all those involved in the production process.

Certification of the entire textile chain

The GOTS standard covers the entire textile chain: • the cultivation • the fiber processing into dust • the manufacture of the final product • the packaging, labelling, trade and distribution of all textiles made from at least 70% certified organic natural fibres.

Criteria for fiber, processing and production of organic fibers

Different requirements apply to the fibres, processing and production. Fibers must be natural and grown in an organic way. Synthetic crop protection products and fertilizers are not allowed.

The GOTS also sets requirements for the processing of the fiber into fabric and clothing. At each step, it is determined which additives may be used in order to achieve as much environmental benefit as possible. GOTS also sets social requirements in the field of labor rights (including minimum wage, prohibition of forced and child labor and a safe and hygienic working environment).
