Friday Sock Co. is proud to use a supplier that is OEKO-TEX® certified. In addition to this, they also go to great lengths to re-use and recycle all plastic components used during production.
The OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 is an independent testing and certification system for textile raw materials, intermediate and end products at all stages of production. Examples for items eligible for certification: Raw and dyed/finished yarns, raw and dyed/finished fabrics and knits, ready-made articles (all types of clothing, domestic and household textiles, bed linen, terry cloth items, textile toys and more).
OEKO-TEX® testing for harmful substances always focus on the actual use of the textile. The more intensive the skin contact of a product, the stricter the human ecological requirements to be met.
Testing for harmful substances includes:
-
illegal substances
-
legally regulated substances
-
known harmful (but not legally regulated) chemicals
-
as well as parameters for health care
Now you know! Team Friday. #notyouraveragesockcompany
