4.1 OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN

General Information
How to use the MADE IN GREEN label on marketing materials
It can be used to promote OEKO-TEX®
MADE IN GREEN labelled products throughcatalogues, flyers, product websites or
any other media such as social media
in connection with an MADE IN GREEN
labelled product.
The connection with the labelled productmust be always recognisable and visible
for everyone. Therefore, only goods thatare actually labelled with an OEKO-TEX®
MADE IN GREEN label may be advertised
as such. This means that an MADE IN
GREEN label may only be displayed inbrochures, catalogues, online shops orother media such as social media in
connection with the product whose
MADE IN GREEN product ID it bears.

If a product is advertised as OEKO-TEX®
MADE IN GREEN labelled, the physicalproduct must be marked with the valid
corresponding label.
For MADE IN GREEN labelled intermediate
products (to be used as components in further
processing), we highly recommend, but do
not require, a label affixed to each physicalproduct. However, if these products arebeing promoted as certified, a label on the
packaging is mandatory.

OEKO-TEX® strongly recommends using
the label to promote products. However,
we recognise that sometimes the designsolution won’t allow it. In these cases, asecond option to promote the MADE IN
GREEN labelled products is available.
This is done through text, which shall be invisual adjacency to the promoted product.

It is recommended that the text contains
a link to the OEKO-TEX® website.
Example:Responsible and safe.
OEKO-TEX® MADE IN GREEN
XXXXXX Institutewww.oeko-tex.com

The text must contain the following
information: full OEKO-TEX® productbrand name, Product ID number /MADE IN GREEN Label number, institute.

Please note:
The umbrella - & product brand arealways written in capitalizied letters.

Advertisement Labelsa. W
 ho is permitted to use the
MADE IN GREEN advertisement label?

b. Where to place the MADE IN GREEN
advertisement label?

c. How to use the MADE IN GREEN
advertisement label on marketing materials✓	OEKO-TEX® customers with at least
one valid specific MADE IN GREEN
label, if logistics makes it necessary
to work internally with one uniform label.

✓ On marketing materials that promote
MADE IN GREEN labelled products
but shall never be used on products as
product labels, e.g. on hangtags, tags,
etc.

The advertisement label is a label granted
to OEKO-TEX® partners who need to workwith one uniform label for product marketing
communication. OEKO-TEX®recognizes theneed to broadly reference OEKO-TEX® onmarketing materials, such as catalogues,
brochures and Point of Sale (POS) material.

The user of the advertisement label
is responsible that MADE IN GREEN
labelled products are clearly marked withthe product label to create consumertransparency and avoid confusion between
MADE IN GREEN qualified products andunqualified products.

If the advertisement label is used, it must be
clear which products are MADE IN GREEN
labelled and which aren’t. This is done by
distinguishing MADE IN GREEN labelled
products with the product labels (or text
reference). The advertisement label can only
be used if the physical product is marked withthe valid MADE IN GREEN label.

It is mandatory that the displayed label
includes all the mandatory components fora MADE IN GREEN label (see page 19).

✓ Retailers may receive their own
MADE IN GREEN advertisement label
if they sell MADE IN GREEN labelled
products in their assortment.

4.2 OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100

General Information
How to use the STANDARD 100 label on marketing materials
It can be used to promote OEKO-TEX®
STANDARD 100 certified products throughcatalogues, flyers, product websites or
any other media such as social media in
connection with a STANDARD 100 certified
product.
The connection with the certified productmust be always recognisable and visible
for everyone. Therefore, only goods thatare actually labelled with an OEKO-TEX®
STANDARD 100 label may be advertised
as such. This means that a STANDARD 100
label may only be displayed in brochures,catalogues, online shops or other media
such as social media in connection with the
product whose STANDARD 100 certificate
number it bears.

If a product is advertised as OEKO-TEX®
STANDARD 100 certified, the physicalproduct must be marked with the valid
corresponding label.

OEKO-TEX® strongly recommends using
the label to promote products. However,
we recognise that sometimes the designsolution won’t allow it.

It is recommended that the text contains
a link to the OEKO-TEX® website.

For certified intermediate products (to be
used as components in further processing),
we highly recommend, but do not require,a label affixed to each physical product.
However, if these products are being
promoted as certified, a label on the
packaging is mandatory.

In these cases, a second option to promote
the STANDARD 100 certified products isavailable. This is done through text, whichshall be in visual adjacency to the promoted
product.

Textiles you can trust.
OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100
XXXXXX Institutewww.oeko-tex.com

Example:The text must contain the following
information: full OEKO-TEX® productbrand name, certificate number, institute.

Please note:
The umbrella - & product brand arealways written in capitalizied letters.

c. H ow to use the STANDARD 100
advertisement label on marketing materials✓ OEKO-TEX® customers with a
STANDARD 100 certificate who would
like to use a uniform label for productmarketing communication.

✓ On marketing materials that promote 		
STANDARD 100 certified products.

The advertisement label is a label granted
to OEKO-TEX® partners who need towork with one uniform label for productmarketing communication. The summary
certificate is the basis for the advertisment
label. OEKO-TEX® recognizes the need tobroadly reference OEKO-TEX® onmarketing materials, such as catalogues,
brochures and POS (Point of Sale) material.

Please note:X Must never be displayed on products
or product marketing, materials e.g.,tags, hangtags, product packaging or
product websites.

If the advertisement label is used, it must
be clear which products are STANDARD 100
certified and which are not. This is doneby distinguishing STANDARD 100 certified
products with the product labels (or text
reference). The advertisement label canonly be used if at least one product ismarked with the specific physical productlabel.

OEKO-TEX® Labelling Guide

The user of the advertisement label is
responsible that certified products areclearly marked with the product label tocreate consumer transparency and avoid
confusion between STANDARD 100 certified
and non certified products.
It is mandatory that the displayed label
includes all the mandatory components fora STANDARD 100 label (see page 36).

General Information
How to use the ORGANIC COTTON label on marketing materials
It can be used to promote OEKO-TEX®
ORGANIC COTTON certified products
through catalogues, flyers, product websites
or any other media such as social media
in connection with a ORGANIC COTTON
certified product.
The connection with the certified productmust be always recognisable and visible
for everyone. Therefore, only goods
that are actually labelled with an
OEKO-TEX® ORGANIC COTTON label
may be advertised as such. This meansthat a ORGANIC COTTON label may only
be displayed in brochures, catalogues,
online shops or other media such as social
media in connection with the product whose
ORGANIC COTTON certificate number itbears.

If a product is advertised as OEKO-TEX®
ORGANIC COTTON certified, the physicalproduct must be marked with the valid
corresponding label.
For certified intermediate products (to be
used as components in further processing),
we highly recommend, but do not require,a label affixed to each physical product.
However, if these products are being
promoted as certified, a label on the
packaging is mandatory.

OEKO-TEX® strongly recommends using
the label to promote products.
However, we recognise that sometimes
the design-solution won’t allow it. In thesecases, a second option to promote the
ORGANIC COTTON certified products isavailable. This is done through text, whichshall be in visual adjacency to the promoted
product.

It is recommended that the text contains alink to the OEKO-TEX® website.
Example:Verified from farm to product.
OEKO-TEX® ORGANIC COTTONXXXXXX Institutewww.oeko-tex.com

The text must contain the following
information: full OEKO-TEX® productbrand name, certificate number, institute.

Please note:
The umbrella - & product brand arealways written in capitalizied letters.

4.5 OEKO-TEX® STeP

General Informationd. How to use the STeP label on marketing materials:
The OEKO-TEX® STeP label shall be usedon marketing materials. It can be used topromote STeP certified facilities throughcatalogues, flyers, fair stands, social media
or company websites.

The company-related label shall never beused on products and on product marketing.

It is recommended that the text contains thelink to the OEKO-TEX® website.

OEKO-TEX® strongly recommends using
the STeP label to promote company
initiatives.

Example:The connection between the label orthe certificate number with the certified
production facility must be recognisable
at all times and for everyone. Therefore,
only facilities that are actually certified canbe associated with the OEKO-TEX® STeP
label and advertised as such. This meansthat a STeP label may only be displayedin brochures, catalogues or other media
in connection with the production facility
whose certificate number it bears.

However, we recognise the possibility
that sometimes the design-solution won’t
allow it. In these cases, a second option
to promote the STeP certified company isavailable. This is done is through text.

Responsible production
for people and planet.
OEKO-TEX® STePXXXXXX Institutewww.oeko-tex.com

The text must contain the following
information: full product brand name,certificate number, institute

General Informationd. How to use the ECO PASSPORT label on product:

How to use the ECO PASSPORT label on marketing materials:

The OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT label may
be used on chemical product packaging
to identify specific chemicals that havequalified for that label.

It can be used to promote OEKO-TEX®
ECO PASSPORT certified chemicals throughcatalogues, flyers, product websites or
any other media such as social media in
connection with an ECO PASSPORT certified
product.

The label should be visibly placed and easy
to access for users and customers on tags or
packaging.
The use of an OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT
label to promote certified products is highly
recommended but not mandated by
OEKO-TEX®.

The connection with the certified chemicalmust be always recognisable and visible foreveryone. Therefore, only chemicals thatare actually labelled with an OEKO-TEX®
ECO PASSPORT label may be advertised
as such. This means that a ECO PASSPORT
label may only be displayed in brochures,catalogues, online shops or other media
such as social media in connection with the
product whose ECO PASSPORT certificate
number it bears.
If a chemical is advertised as OEKO-TEX®
ECO PASSPORT certified, the physicalchemical must be marked with the valid
corresponding label.

OEKO-TEX® strongly recommends using thelabel to promote products. However, we
recognise that sometimes the designsolution won’t allow it. In these cases,
a second option to promote the ECOPASSPORT certified products is available.
This is done through text, which shall be invisual adjacency to the promoted product.
The text must contain the following
information: full OEKO-TEX® product brand
name, certificate number, institute.
It is recommended that the text contains alink to the OEKO-TEX® website.

References to other Standards

The certification of a chemical with OEKO-TEX® ECO PASSPORT or an entry by ACP in the ACP-List of OEKO-TEX® gives the right to refer to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 or other OEKO-TEX®
Standards where applicable. Without this certification or listing, OEKO-TEX® has no possibility to verify the suitability of this chemical for the use in in mentioned context.
In such cases, OEKO-TEX® marks are prohibited to be used in any form in direct relation to specific products by the chemical manufacturer or seller.
If a chemical manufacturer or seller, however, choses to refer to OEKO-TEX® Standards via a text reference, it is considered as a mere self-declaration by the chemical manufacturer or seller.
The chemical manufacturer or seller shall highlight any “self-declarations” regarding the suitability to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 as an “unverified self-declaration”. Under no circumstances
shall such claims be perceived as having been made in the name of or on behalf of OEKO-TEX®. OEKO-TEX® does not accept any liability whatsoever in such cases and any such claim shall not
use the OEKO-TEX® trademarks.
