Our vision and mission

Vision

Our vision is a world where all textiles are produced in accordance with the principles of health, ecology, fairness and care to enhance people’s lives and the environment. Organic textiles are an integral part of this holistic approach.

Mission

Our mission is to develop and operate voluntary textile standards with published environmental, social and certification requirements.

We develop, operate and promote GOTS and GRTS. The standards set published requirements for eligible materials and certified processing, environmental management, chemical inputs, human rights, social criteria and business conduct.
