For more than three decades, OEKO-TEX® standards enable textile and leather companies as well as consumers to make responsible decisions and protect natural resources. A commitment that is based on proven science. The standards work in a modular system for easier implementation.
September 2024
OEKO-TEX® focuses on transparency and traceability and on the close collaboration with 17 research and testing institutes and leather manufacturers to develop high-quality leather products at all stages of the value chain.
The international association takes measures to foster scientific insight and innovation within the leather and textile industry. Here, a modular approach has proven successful to enable brands and manufacturers to greater sustainability.
The OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN label illustrates this concept: The traceable product label for all kinds of leather products implies the OEKO-TEX® LEATHER STANDARD for product safety as well as the OEKO-TEX® STeP facility certification that promotes safe and socially responsible working conditions.
OEKO-TEX® looks forward to meeting you from 17 to 19 September 2024 at Lineapelle (Hall 24 Stand N03) to learn about the complete OEKO-TEX® modular system, including standards promoting greener chemistry and ‘due diligence’.
The two-day event organised at Italiana Accessori's headquarters in collaboration with Sagitta is back, showcasing the latest innovations in the world of footwear, leather goods and clothing decoration.
