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:

    Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.
    Eric Gill (1882–1940)

    The difference between people isn’t in their class, but in themselves. Only from the middle classes one gets ideas, and from the common people—life itself, warmth. You feel their hates and loves.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
