In the textile and accessory sector, sustainability is no longer optional — it is a requirement. Among the key certifications that brands exporting to the European market demand from their suppliers, OEKO-TEX Standard 100 stands out as one of the most critical.
OEKO-TEX Standard 100 is an independent certification system that verifies textile products and accessories do not contain chemical substances harmful to human health. Audited by the Hohenstein Institute in Germany, this certification covers four distinct product classes, ranging from baby garments to workwear.
At Dikmen Metal, all of our brass and zamak accessories fall under OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I certification. This means they can be safely used in any textile application, including baby clothing. Our certification covers the entire production chain, from raw materials to the chemicals used in the electroplating process.
Requiring this certification in supplier selection helps brands meet their legal obligations and, at the same time, strengthens consumer trust.
