The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the worldwide leading textile processing standard for organic fibers. Both ecological and social criteria are considered and backed up by independent certification of the entire textile supply chain.

The GOTS standard covers the processing, manufacturing, packaging, labelling, trading and distribution of all textiles made from at least 70% certified organic natural fibers. The final products include fiber products, yarns, fabrics, clothes and home textiles.

GOTS aims to define globally and commonly recognized requirements for textiles. From the harvesting of raw materials via environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing up to labelling in order to provide a credible level of assurance to the end consumer.
