The OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is an internationally recognized certifi- cation system that ensures textiles are safe for human health. It tests fabrics at all stages of production for harmful substances, including allergenic dyes, pesticides, heavy metals, and form- aldehyde. The standard also ensures that the pH of the fabric is compatible with human skin. Textiles that pass the rigorous testing process are certified as free from harmful levels of substances, making them safer for consumers to wear. OEKO-TEX 100 Overview
