Oeko-tex Standard - Product Classes

Product Classes

The test costs depend on which of the four Oeko-Tex product classes the product falls under

I = baby products (up to age three - 36 months)
II = products having skin contact (blouses, shirts, underwear)
III = products having no skin contact (coats, lined cloths)
IV = furnishings (table wear, funiture coverings, curtains, textile flooring, mattresses)

The greater the contact with the skin, the more stringent the requirements.

Famous quotes containing the words product and/or classes:

    “The site of the true bottomless financial pit is the toy store. It’s amazing how much a few pieces of plastic and paper will sell for if the purchasers are parents or grandparent, especially when the manufacturers claim their product improves a child’s intellectual or physical development.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    “We deny your internationalism, because it is a luxury which only the upper classes can afford; the working people are hopelessly bound to their native shores.”
    —Benito Mussolini (1883–1945)
