Labelling Guide

Label Elements

OEKO-TEX® provides the label as a communication tool for certified products. 

All OEKO-TEX® labels must include the following elements: 

     a. OEKO-TEX® product brand logo 
     b. Traceability Information (Testing Institute + Certificate number or QR-Code) 

The modular construction allows the following elements to be added to the label: 

     c. Testing institute if QR-Code is already shown. 
     d. Label number if QR-Code is already shown. 
     e. QR-Code if label number is already shown. 
     f. OEKO-TEX® website
