OEKO-TEX® Association, the global standard in certifications, emphasizes its vision of transparency, trust, safety and sustainability in the textile production processes in its Annual Report 2019/2020.
Excerpts from the Annual Report 2019-2020:
The organization released measures in March-April 2020 which showcase how it has adapted its processes for certificate renewal. Despite disruption in manufacturing and other processes across global industries due to COVID pandemic, OEKO-TEX® continued to work towards renewals to prevent interruptions for the retailers and supply chain partners. Existing certificate renewals were temporarily processed without samples to give certificate owners 3 additional months to gather testing samples. In a generous gesture, OEKO-TEX® waived off license fee for STANDARD 100 certification for mouth and nose masks in these challenging times.
The annual report showcases OEKO-TEX®’s engagements with United Nations (UN), Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Partnership for Sustainable Textiles, Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC), Universities and OEKO-TEX® International Advisory Board.
The 2 engagements with UN Multi-Stakeholder Initiative(MSI) has OEKO-TEX® focusing on transparency and traceability in textile and leather supply chain for consumers, manufacturers and brands.

OEKO-TEX® views its engagement in the Partnership for Sustainable Textiles which has tangible ways to foster structural changes. OEKO-TEX® supports the Partnership in the Wastewater Initiative – launched on July 01, 2020 – to help businesses to incorporate a sustainable wastewater management in the textile supply chain.
As a contributor to ZDHC, OEKO-TEX® continuously collaborates in reducing industrial chemical footprint.
Since 2018, OEKO-TEX® has been involved in academic discourse with the Academy of Fashion and Design, Dusseldorf. OEKO-TEX® is expanding such engagements to other universities.
