Why we only use cotton that is GOTS-certified

Sustainability isn’t about shortcuts. It's about setting high standards and meeting them, day after day. Certifications help us stay accountable and giving our partners and customers real proof they can trust.

Understanding GOTS 

GOTS stands for Global Organic Textile Standard. It’s the world’s leading certification for organic fibers, covering every step of the production from ginning to the finished garment. 

At each step of the supply chain, it makes sure that processes and good practices are in place in order to ensure the organic integrity and the traceability of the cotton through the whole chain of custody. 

Every cotton-based garment we makholds the organic GOTS-certification. *  

* Certified by Control Union CU 1393082 (US)

What GOTS covers 

GOTS is often seen as just an organic label. It’s a globally recognised, scope-based certification that requires compliance across the full production chain: 

  • Environment: organic farming, no GMOs, no toxic inputs, strict wastewater and chemical management.
  • Social: safe working conditions and fair treatment of workers.
  • Due diligence: risk assessments and policies aligned with OECD guidelines.
  • Traceability: complete visibility from cotton ginning to garment.
  • Audits: third-party independent checks, repeated regularly.

To carry the GOTS label, every supplier involved in our production must be certified for their scope. That makes GOTS one of the most credible and comprehensive textile standards available. 

Why it matters for our US partners

In a market full of sustainability claims, GOTS stands apart. It gives US brands, decorators, and retailers the confidence to differentiate with:

  • A trusted global standard backed by independent third party certification bodies.
  • Verified statements for tenders, partnerships, and storytelling 
  • Stronger framework for to support the integrity of the organic content of the cotton and the wellbeing of the people behind it.

For us, GOTS isn’t the end goal. It’s the foundation to provide our partners and customers garments made with the best organic cotton.
