What it is
GOTS (the Global Organic Textile Standard) is an international standard for organic textiles, covering both environmental and social criteria across the supply chain, with independent certification.
Why it matters for compliance
For textile brands making organic or responsible-sourcing claims, GOTS provides a verifiable, third-party-certified basis — the kind of substantiation that tightening green-claims rules increasingly require. It supports environmental and social claims with documented evidence.
How to use it
- Use GOTS certification to substantiate organic-textile claims.
- Combine with chemical evidence (e.g. REACH, OEKO-TEX) for the full safety picture.
- Use it behind sustainability and sourcing claims.
Good to know
An unsubstantiated “organic” or “sustainable” claim is a greenwashing risk — a standard like GOTS is one way to make the claim provable.
