Bureau Veritas Consumer Products Services enhances its Sustainable Claims Solutions with the Addition of GOTS Accreditation from ANAB

Mar. 23 2022

Bureau Veritas Consumer Products Services (BVCPS) is pleased to announce it has been accredited by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and officially obtained the accreditation of Global Organic Textile Standards (GOTS). BVCPS has enhanced its Sustainable Claims Solutions with the additional accreditation to perform GOTS Certification full scope of services, as well as Textile Exchange’s Organic Content Standard (OCS).

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is a voluntary standard, that covers the processing, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, trading, and distribution of all textiles made from at least 70% certified organic natural fibers. The final products may include but are not limited to fiber products, yarns, fabrics, garments, fashion textile accessories (carried or worn), textile toys, home textiles, mattresses and bedding, and textile personal care products.

This Standard aims to define requirements to ensure the organic status of textiles, from harvesting of raw materials, through environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing up to labeling to provide a credible assurance to the end consumer. Therefore, processors, manufacturers, traders, and retailers need to demonstrate their ability to comply with the relevant GOTS criteria in the corresponding certification procedure.

BVCPS is accredited for GOTS to certify:

Scope 1: Mechanical textile processing and manufacturing operations and their products
Scope 2: Wet processing and finishing operations and their products
Scope 3: Trading operations and related products
Scope 4: Approval of dyes and textile auxiliary agents (chemical inputs) on positive lists

In addition to the GOTS certification, BVCPS provides services against all Textile Exchange standards including Organic Content Standard (OCS), Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) and Global Recycled Standard (GRS).
