Our certifications
In CASAGiN the certifications guarantee the quality of the raw materials, their traceability, the environmental impact and respect for the rights of the workers involved in the supply chain. Textile certifications are the most important aspect when talking about sustainable fashion. On the market, for example, there are many types of clothes and fabrics, many of which undergo aggressive treatments and are made with chemical additives which inevitably change their characteristics. To be sure that an item you are purchasing does not contain these harmful substances, you can use textile certifications. This is why we have created a page that summarizes the main certifications and guarantees of our fabrics. This way anyone can know how the items purchased are made.
Certifications
It is an independent control and certification system for textile products at all stages of processing. It guarantees that textile products do not contain or release substances harmful to human health. OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 indicates that the manufacturer is certified as environmentally friendly in both its processes and factories, as well as tested to verify the absence of harmful substances on the products.
European brand used to certify a reduced environmental impact of the products offered by companies that have obtained their use. It certifies environmentally compatible products, allowing the consumer to recognize through a brand the respect for the environment by the product, throughout its life cycle, which can thus differentiate itself from competitors on the market, maintaining high environmental performance standards.
It is an international non-profit certificate, created mainly with the aim of stopping deforestation and the related social problems that spread throughout the world. FSC certified products derive from controlled forests, in which deforestation is carried out intelligently, and in most cases followed by the re-grafting of trees. FSC is an essential certification for the future of forests.
It is a standard developed by leading international organizations in organic farming in order to guarantee the consumer that organic textile products are obtained in compliance with stringent environmental and social criteria applied at all levels of production, from the collection of natural fibers in the field to subsequent manufacturing phases, up to the labeling of the finished product. GOTS certified textile products contain at least 70% natural fibers from organic farming.
It is a certification promoted by the Textile Exchange with the aim of encouraging the use of recycled materials in the textile sector. The Textile Exchange is an international non-profit association, which works to guide the textile sector towards more sustainable fashion.
GRS certification is intended to meet the needs of consumers who wish to verify the presence of recycled materials in the products they purchase. The Global Recycle Standard also guarantees socially ethical practices, and environmental responsibility aimed above all at the correct use of potentially dangerous chemical substances.
A certification that helps ensure a responsible and more sustainable production system. BLUESIGN indicates the best path for each fabric along the manufacturing process, the use of more suitable categories of substances and products, improvements at each stage, thus intensifying efforts step by step to develop more sustainable processes aligned with best practices available.
Reach is a European regulation that provides for controls of all chemical substances produced or imported into Europe. The Reach regulation sets important goals in the environmental and social fields: it protects human health and the environment by improving knowledge of the dangers deriving from the use of chemical products; requires the use of alternative methods to testing chemical substances, which are normally performed on animals; improves the innovative sector and the competitiveness of the European chemical industries.
Reach is a regulation drawn up in collaboration with Greenpeace, which currently applies to all products made in Europe.
