In time for its 25-year anniversary, the Oeko-Tex Association has expanded its product portfolio to cater for the leather sector with the Leather Standard by Oeko-Tex.
The first certifications are being carried out with the sheepskin producers G.L. Bowron and Gerberei Hofbrucker, as well as with the Lidl retail chain.
The international certification association from Neckarsulm, Germany, will use the ‘Leather Standard by Oeko-Tex’ for advertising purposes across Europe. Further certificates are expected to be granted soon.
