Introduction to GOTS organic cotton certification agency

GOTS Global Organic Textile Certification Standard allows textile manufacturers to export organic textiles and clothing to major markets around the world. Since September 2006, the German International Natural Textile Association IVN, the British Soil Association SA, the American Organic Trade Association OTA and the Japanese Organic Cotton Association JOCA have also decided to adopt the GOTS standard. The purpose of the Global Organic Textile Standard is to ensure that textile manufacturers' organic fabrics and clothing are certified and recognized in all major world markets, which is an important step towards consistent and transparent textile labeling.

The GOTS International Working Group has officially approved IMO as the first certification body: IMO certification will detail the requirements to ensure the organic status of textiles, from the harvesting of raw materials to environmental and social responsibility and manufacturing labeling, providing credible guarantees for end consumers. As the global certification body for organic textiles, IMO can also approve dyes and auxiliaries provided by dye suppliers for dyeing and treatment of organic textiles.

There are many organizations engaged in the designation and certification of organic cotton standards. The International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movement (1FOAM) is one of the main international certification bodies and has formulated the influential "Organic Textile Standards". Other well-known international certification bodies include the Organic Trade Association (OTA) in the United States, the Soil Association (Soil Association) in the United Kingdom, the International Association Natural Industry (IVN.International Association Natural Industry) in Germany, the international organization Demeter in Europe, KRAV in Sweden and Northern Europe, and the Japan Organic Cotton Association (JOCA) in Japan. The Institute for Marketecology (IMO) in Switzerland and Skal in the Netherlands are well-known international certification bodies. IMO can conduct certification on behalf of OTA, INV, Demeter, etc. IMO is also the certification body for Walmart's organic cotton project in China, Turkey, India, Pakistan and African countries.
