Compliance & trade notes

Textile and leather exports typically require restricted-substance testing (AZO dyes, chromium VI) and increasingly sustainability certification such as OEKO-TEX or Leather Working Group.

Frequently asked questions

Ask for the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 or STeP certificate for textiles, or the Leather Working Group audit rating (Gold, Silver, Bronze) for tanneries, and validate them in the issuing body's online directory. GOTS certification is the benchmark for genuinely organic cotton supply chains.

Require colourfastness to washing and rubbing (ISO 105), dimensional stability/shrinkage, pilling, and tensile or tear strength results appropriate to the end use. For leather, add chromium VI, fogging, and physical flex-resistance testing for automotive or upholstery grades.

China and India dominate woven and knit fabrics and yarns, Italy leads premium fabrics and finished leather, and Turkey is strong on denim and home textiles. Leather tanning is concentrated in India (Kanpur, Chennai), Italy's Arzignano district, and Bangladesh.
