The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is an international standard for the processing of textiles made with organic fibres, with environmental criteria and third-party certification across the different stages of production.

From the harvesting of raw materials to manufacturing and labelling, GOTS sets internationally recognised requirements for organic textiles. The standard applies to a wide range of textile products, including yarns, fabrics, clothing, home textiles and other finished goods, providing a credible basis for market communication.
