GRS-certified yarn – now available at TVU

Making the textile industry more sustainable is an important objective for all of us. With our new Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certification, we have reached a significant milestone towards this goal. It means that we can now offer certified recycled yarns, especially cotton and polyester, that meet the highest quality and sustainability standards.

What is special about the Global Recycled Standard (GRS)?

  • Traceability: A consistent traceability of the supply chain from the raw material source to the final product must be guaranteed
  • Composition: GRS ensures that the certified yarn contains at least 20% recycled fibre
  • Environmental and social criteria: The certification takes into account not only environmental aspects, but also social and ethical criteria along the value chain
  • Índependent verification: GRS is monitored by independent certification bodies to ensure compliance with the standards
