How is the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification audit product classification divided? Since February 1998, Oeko-Tex Standard 100 has divided products into four categories, replacing the previous 16 product groups. This textile classification is easier and simpler for certification applicants. The Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification audit standard is a product grade divided according to the use of textiles. These products include not only goods to be sold, but also unprocessed raw materials and accessories. Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification audit product classification is based on the different uses and testing methods of the products to form the following different levels: 1. Baby products (category 1) All fabrics, raw materials and accessories used to make clothing for infants and children under two years old, except leather clothing. 2. Products that come into direct contact with the skin (Class II products) Fabrics that are in direct contact with the skin when worn (e.g. tops, shirts, underwear, etc.) 3. Products that do not contact the skin (category 3 products) When worn, only a small part of the fabric directly touches the skin, and most of the fabric does not touch the skin (such as filling, lining, etc.) 4. Decorative materials (four categories of products) All products and materials used for sewing interior decoration products, such as tablecloths, wall coverings, furniture fabrics, curtains, upholstery fabrics, floor coverings, window mats, etc. The Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification audit standard stipulates very strict conditions for products for babies and toddlers: for example, the formaldehyde limit is 20ppm, while the formaldehyde limit for products that come into direct contact with the skin, such as bedding, underwear, shirts and loose tops, is 75ppm. Products that do not come into direct contact with the skin, such as outerwear (suits and coats for men and women) and home decorations (tablecloths, decorative fabrics, curtains, fabrics on furniture, mattresses), only need to have a formaldehyde content below 300ppm. For comparison, the formaldehyde content of an apple is at least 20ppm. Formaldehyde in cosmetics is used as a preservative. Products such as mouthwash must be announced if the formaldehyde content exceeds 100ppm. According to the law, formaldehyde content in textiles must be declared if it is 1500ppm or higher. From the above introduction to the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification audit product classification, we can understand that the regulations for infants and toddlers are very strict, so the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification inspection standards are also quite strict, and it is relatively difficult to successfully pass the certification audit.
