You may have see the letters (GOTS) on clothing labels and wondered what it means. It stands for Global Organic Textile Standard, the leading worldwide standard for organic textiles. The accreditation is recognised as the gold standard for environmental and ethical production. With every step of the supply chain, from field to factory thoroughly and independently inspected to meet the high standards. Organic cotton is soft and gentle on baby and children's skin. It can be washed and washed again, and often hasn't had any chemicals used in its production.
Our wooden toys are FSC certified, (Forest Stewardship Council). This is the world's leading forest certification system and works to mitigate the climate and biodiversity impact through responsible forest management worldwide. This system covers more than 160 million hectares of forest and enables businesses and consumers to choose wood, paper and other forest products that support responsible forestry. The tick tree logo is found on millions of products worldwide, verifying responsible sourcing from forest to shelf.
So next time you go shopping take a closer look at the label, is it made with quality (GOTS) organic cotton and can you see the FSC logo on the wooden toy. These certifications give you the confidence that this product has been responsibly sourced and is genuinely better for the planet. These products last, the quality is to a much higher standard and can be passed on to another child to wear or play with.
