Materials & compliance

Certified yarns, checked at every gate.

We'll be straight with you, because your compliance team will check anyway: the certificates below belong to our yarn suppliers, not to us. We buy certified yarn, we pass the certificates on with your order, and we open our factory to your own audit. Here is exactly what that covers — and what it doesn't.

Certificates that come with your yarn

$OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified yarn$

OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 yarn

Our cotton, bamboo and polyamide yarns come from spinners holding current Standard 100 certificates — tested free of harmful substances. We send you the certificate and its validity date with your order file.

GOTS certified organic cotton

For sustainability-positioned lines we source GOTS certified organic cotton yarn. Note that selling a finished sock labelled GOTS requires chain-of-custody certification — if your brand needs that, tell us early and we'll arrange it before production.

What we do ourselves

Four quality gates

Incoming yarn, in-line knitting, post-boarding and a pre-shipment AQL inspection. Every export order leaves with a signed inspection sheet — ours, not a third party's.

Your audit, welcome

We are not currently BSCI or Sedex audited. If your retailer requires it, you are welcome to send your own auditor or nominate a third party — we'll cover access and documentation.

Traceable batches

Each production run is recorded against its yarn lot, so a complaint can be traced back to the exact batch and spinner.

What you can and can't claim on your packaging

✅ Fair to say

"Knitted with OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified yarn." "Made with GOTS certified organic cotton." Both are backed by supplier certificates we hand over.

❌ Not yet

"OEKO-TEX certified product" or a GOTS label on the finished sock — those need certification of the finished article and of our factory. We can start that process for a committed programme; ask us for the timeline and cost.
