The Blue Angel for Textiles: Green clothes – more than a fig leaf

There are many textile standards on paper – but on most products they are missing. And not all label guarantee environmentally friendly standards for the entire production chain. Many consumers are overwhelmed by the sheer number of labels. They don´t know which labels they should consider. To be of practical use in every day´s life, a label must be well known and trustworthy. The aim of the Blue Angel is to provide a reliable guidance for sustainable textiles.

Since 1978 the German Blue Angel has set the standard for eco-friendly goods and services. Today, about 13.000 products within 120 categories carry the Blue Angel eco-label.
