OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100

Mountain Horse continues its environmental work by now having certified products against Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 on a product level. Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 is a human ecological labeling. Mountain Hors have required to have Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 on fabrics and trims in our products for a long time. But to take another step in the right direction, we have now chosen to have products in our range that are certified against Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 on a product level. First out are our socks.

A product may be marketed or labeled with OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 only if all components comply with the requirements of the current product class. The product must also belong to a certificate. STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® adjusts current requirements according to REACH legislation for relevant parameters.

STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® is the most famous and widely distributed brand in the world and therefore also the world’s leading brand for textiles, leather, accessories and manufacturers tested for health hazardous substances.
The symbol below is available on the website for products certified to Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 on a product level:
 
First out to have this certification is MH tech sock, River socks (unisex), Kit tech sock and Summer sock long. They are all certified against Product Class II, meaning that the products are mostly in direct skin contact. More products will come with next season.
