Certificates and Seals

Certificates and official seals exist to document criteria like the cultivation and production of cotton as well as the production conditions in which the goods are manufactured (e.g. the absence of lead in children’s items and other matters related to lead or PVC content). All certificates must be renewed regularly.
We continually strive to keep up-to-date on the most current information about our more than 30 manufacturers and suppliers.

Here you can find an overview of the certificates, official seals and codices which were presented to us before this page's last update (10/2020). If a manufacturer cannot be found here, this does not mean that this company's products do not have certificates rather that no certificates were presented before this page's most recent update. We ask you to please bear this in mind.
