In a world where sustainability is no longer an option but a necessity, the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) Certification has become the benchmark for organic textiles. It is not just a label but a commitment to the planet, people, and quality.
At Essentials, we understand that the textile industry must evolve towards more responsible practices. That is why our yarns are GOTS certified—a seal that guarantees that every fiber, from cultivation to its transformation into yarn, meets the highest standards of sustainability and ethics.
What makes GOTS so special?
GOTS Certification is not just a formality; it is a rigorous process that covers the entire supply chain. From the fields where organic fibers are grown to the moment the product reaches consumers, every step is carefully inspected and certified by independent organizations. This ensures that textiles are organic, environmentally friendly, and respectful of workers’ rights.
Additionally, GOTS establishes clear social criteria, ensuring fair and safe working conditions for everyone involved in the process. It is a way to ensure that behind every thread, there is a story of responsibility and commitment.
Benefits for Consumers and the Environment
When you choose a GOTS-certified product, you are not only purchasing a high-quality textile but also contributing to the planet’s sustainability. Here are some of the benefits:
- Guaranteed quality: GOTS products meet strict technical parameters, such as colorfastness and durability.
- Total transparency: Every stage of the process is certified, allowing you to know the origin and impact of your purchase.
- Environmental protection: Only low-impact chemical inputs are allowed, and wastewater treatment is supervised to minimize pollution.
- Social responsibility: Workers enjoy fair and safe working conditions, free from exploitation.
Choosing GOTS-certified yarns is not just a quality decision but a conscious choice that reduces environmental impact and promotes ethical practices in the textile industry.
The certification process at Inca Tops
Inca Tops began planning its GOTS certification process five months ago, carefully selecting the products to be certified and validating its processes to ensure compliance with requirements. For this, Control Union was chosen as the certifying entity, a company we had previously worked with for RAF certification.
During the audit, it was verified that each stage of production meets GOTS certification criteria, both for natural yarn and dyed yarn production. This not only guarantees product traceability but also reaffirms our commitment to sustainability and quality.
Essentials and GOTS: A Commitment to the Future
At Essentials, as part of Inca Tops, we are proud to offer yarns that not only meet these standards but also inspire the creation of unique and sustainable projects.
