We highlight the special features of your products and services.
The range of textiles available on the market is constantly growing. However, customers’ wish for safety is growing alongside it: they want to trust that their textiles are not harmful to health and that their desired features are of a high quality. These issues have a significant effect on their buying decision.
Product labels such as the Hohenstein Quality Label, an OEKO-TEX® Label, the UV STANDARD 801 or the RAL Quality Certification Mark help you, as a manufacturer, brand or retailer, to sell your textiles and textile services. Independent labels and certificates are a reliable and trustworthy form of proof of awarded product features and functions.
