What do eco-responsible standards correspond to?

GLOBAL ORGANIC TEXTILE STANDARD (GOTS)

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the global textile processing standard for organic fibers, including ecological and social criteria, supported by independent third-party certification of the entire textile supply chain. This standard also sets limits on other fibers that can be blended with organic fibers.

Organic Content Standard (OCS)

The Organic Content Standard (OCS) is a certification for non-food products that confirms the presence of organic materials in the final product. It also follows the supply chain from its source to the final product.

Global Recycled Products Standard (GRS) and Recycling Claim Standard (RCS)

The Recycling Claim Standard (RCS) and the Global Recycled Products Standard (GRS) are international, voluntary standards that define requirements for third-party content and supply chain certification. The common goal of the standards is to increase the use of recycled materials. The GRS includes additional criteria for social and environmental treatment requirements and chemical restrictions.

Ecocert COSMOS

Ecocert COSMOS certification guarantees that the ingredients are of natural origin with the exception of a limited list of ingredients authorized in small quantities. On average, products certified by Ecocert contain 99% ingredients of natural origin.

Ecocert certification verifies the composition, processing and packaging of the product.
The certification guarantees an environmentally friendly product that is manufactured with consideration for biodiversity and the preservation of natural resources. This certification includes other factors such as the absence of GMOs and petrochemical ingredients (parabens, phenoxyethanol, synthetic fragrances and dyes).
