Consumer demand for textile producers to be transparent about safe and sustainable textile supply chain is at an all-time high. This session aims to give you the latest information about the OEKO-TEX® product portfolio; an introduction to new products such as ORGANIC COTTON® and the IMPACT CALCULATOR® as well as an in-depth knowledge of OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100®, STeP® and MADE IN GREEN®. The team will demonstrate how these certifications can be effectively employed as transparency tools within your textile supply chain.
