Molo gets Oeko-Tex Certified<br />
As part of its long term strategy to<br />
further develop its sustainable<br />
production and products, Molo is<br />
pleased to announce that all of molo’s<br />
iconic all over printed textiles in jersey will be, as<br />
of Spring Summer 2016, certified in accordance<br />
with the global Oeko-Tex Standard 100.<br />
Oeko-Tex is the world’s leading certification<br />
for textiles that are tested and approved based<br />
on the international Oeko-Tex organization’s<br />
stringent demands regarding the chemical<br />
No Chemicals or other<br />
harmful substances…<br />
content of textiles, which harm, or are suspected<br />
of harming, the body. Molo has been certified in<br />
product class 1, which is the toughest product<br />
class since it concerns textiles that are used<br />
close to the body of children.<br />
Molo’s CEO, Mogens Jepsen, says that Molo<br />
has wanted to be Oeko-Tex certified for a long<br />
time. He says, ”Responsibility is a value that is<br />
near to our hearts. Sustainability has long been<br />
a focus at Molo, but it is important for us to get<br />
the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification since it<br />
gives our customers confidence in the products<br />
that they are purchasing and assures them that<br />
these products never contain chemicals or other<br />
harmful substances that are detrimental to the<br />
health of their child.”<br />
Molo’s all over printed jersey products make<br />
up a large part of the collections, and, as of<br />
December 2015, Molo’s customers can buy<br />
Oeko-Tex certified tops, t-shirts, leggings,<br />
dresses, under garments, accessories and<br />
blankets for both juniors and babies- all with a<br />
clear conscience. Molo strongly emphasises<br />
‘‘We don’t intend to stop<br />
there. We want to continue<br />
to contribute to responsible<br />
production, and we definitely<br />
intend to have more product<br />
groups certified in the future.’’<br />
social responsibility to ensure a sustainable<br />
future. Molo works<br />
exclusively with certified suppliers, where<br />
90% of them havebeen BSCI and/or Oeko-<br />
Tex certified. About 95% of Molo’s technical<br />
outerwear suppliers are Bluesign certified.<br />
In addition, all Molo’s suppliers, as a natural<br />
part of their working partnership with Molo,<br />
must satisfy REACH rules that were created<br />
by the European Union in order to improve<br />
and secure personal health and environmental<br />
standards. Molo makes sure to avoid chemicals<br />
that are named in the EU’s observation list over<br />
potential problematic chemicals.<br />
