The OEKO-TEX® STeP certification sets the highest standards with regard to compliance with social and environmental aspects of textile and leather production. The modular certification system is a mark of responsibility towards employees and the environment, and supports a company’s journey towards more sustainable production.
The holistic OEKO-TEX® STeP certification includes, among other modules such as chemicals and quality management or socially acceptable working conditions, i.a., the following minimum requirements with regard to ecological production processes:
- Compliance with the stipulated limit values (waste water, emissions waste air, waste, etc.)
- Use of production technologies according to the current status of technology
- Efficient use of resources
- Reduction of the CO2 footprint
- Implementation of existing environmental management systems for targeted coordination and systematic implementation of all environmental protection measures
