Laboratory tests and product classes
OEKO-TEX® testing for harmful substances always focus on the actual use of the textile. The more intensive the skin contact of a product, the stricter the human ecological requirements to be met.
Accordingly there are four product classes:
Textile items for babies and toddlers up to 3 years (clothing, toys, bed linen, terry cloth items etc.)
- Product class II:
Textiles used close to the skin (underwear, bed linen, T-shirts etc.)
- Product class III:
Textiles used away from the skin (jackets, coats etc.)
- Product class IV:
Furnishing materials (curtains, table cloths, upholstery materials etc.)
Certification
The requirement for certification of textile products according to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is that all components of an item have to comply with the required criteria without exception – that means in addition to the outer material also sewing threads, linings, prints etc. as well as non-textile accessories such as buttons, zip fasteners, rivets etc.
