What is OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN?

(Former: MADE IN GREEN by OEKO-TEX®)

MADE IN GREEN means sustainability and traceability.

OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN is a traceable product label that is issued for textiles or leather that have been:

  • Tested for harmful substances
  • Produced in environmentally friendly facilities
  • Produced in safe and socially responsible workplaces

The unique product ID allows anyone to trace where the product was manufactured, enabling a whole new level of transparency for companies and consumers.

How is the MADE IN GREEN label achieved?

The label is awarded based on STeP Certification of sustainable production facilities and STANDARD 100 or LEATHER STANDARD Certification of products tested for harmful substances. The label owner manages their supply chain with the myOEKO-TEX Database.
