More than 35,000 textile and leather companies depend on the certificates and product labels issued by OEKO-TEX\u00ae\u2019s independent testing institutes.<\/p>\n<p>OEKO-TEX\u00ae issued more than 50,000 certificates and labels between July 1, 2023, and June 30, 2024 \u2013 an increase of 22% over the previous financial year.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, there are over 40,000 chemical products certified with OEKO-TEX\u00ae ECO PASSPORT. This reflects the industry\u2019s increasing commitment to cleaner, safer textile and leather production. Eco Passport certified chemicals comply with global regulations, including Reach Directive Annexes XVII and XIV, the ECHA Candidate List and the US CPSIA. The certification is also recognized by the ZDHC as proof of MRSL conformity for levels 1 to 3.<\/p>\n<p>The OEKO-TEX\u00ae Organ\u0131c Cotton certification, introduced in 2023 with strict supply chain traceability requirements, saw the first finished products on the market in January 2024. In addition, the limit value for genetically modified organisms (GMOs) was reduced from 10% to 5%, a significant tightening of the requirements for purity and quality.<\/p>\n<p>As regulatory challenges intensify, OEKO-TEX\u00ae has continuously adapted its certifications to ensure they remain compliant with evolving requirements. To address the US CERCLA\u2019s ban on per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS\/PFC), OEKO-TEX\u00ae took proactive measures to generally ban the intentional use of these substances. As a solution for the European Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and other supply chain requirements, OEKO-TEX\u00ae introduced the OEKO-TEX\u00ae Responsible Business certification, which supports companies in fulfilling due diligence obligations throughout textile and leather supply chains.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oeko-tex.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.oeko-tex.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ZURICH | Switzerland &#8211; October 2024 &#8211; The international OEKO-TEX\u00ae association has continued to demonstrate positive business growth, highlighting the critical role of close collaboration and shared commitment in accelerating&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":261642,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"","cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[944],"tags":[261],"class_list":["post-261637","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-standards","tag-oeko-tex"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261637"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=261637"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261637\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":261640,"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261637\/revisions\/261640"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/261642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=261637"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=261637"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/worldimagingnewslatino.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=261637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
