VIENNA — OETI (Institut für Ökologie, Technik und Innovation GmbH) has confirmed that it will now, on behalf of the Vegan Society Austria, audit textile companies seeking to obtain V-label certification. This comes after a pilot project undertaken with terry products manufacturer Vossen proved a success. 

2019 has already proven very busy for the OETI, with it already having launched a new Inspected Quality label, developed for products which are composed of 100 per cent natural fibres and produced regionally in an ‘environmentally-friendly’ way, in February. 

To receive certification manufacturers must use entirely animal-free materials, as well as colourants and colourant auxiliaries
