Why we choose OEKO-TEX® certified fabrics at Gibou
At Gibou, every detail counts. Whether it's local manufacturing, the choice of our materials, or the experience we offer, our priority remains the same: doing things right. That's why many of our fabrics are OEKO-TEX® certified, an international standard that guarantees that a textile is safe for health and environmentally friendly. But what does that mean in concrete terms?
1. Fewer chemicals, kinder to you (and the planet)
The OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification ensures that the fabric is free from harmful substances , such as certain dyes, heavy metals, or pesticide residues. It's a way to ensure that the textiles we use are as kind to your skin as they are to the planet.
2. Transparency that allows you to make an informed choice
When you choose a Gibou product made with OEKO-TEX® certified fabric, you know exactly what to expect: a material tested, verified, and approved by an independent organization. It's our way of building a relationship of trust , one creation at a time.
3. A step further towards more responsible production
This certification is part of our approach to conscious consumption . Even if all our products cannot yet be 100% certified (especially when we work with recycled or upcycled materials), every action counts. And this one, we do it with pride.
4. Uncompromising comfort
Our OEKO-TEX® fabrics aren't just safe: they're also ultra-comfortable. Because we believe that a beautiful and well-designed accessory should never compromise between style, comfort, and conscience .
In summary
Working with OEKO-TEX® certified fabrics means choosing a cleaner, more transparent, and more respectful path—for you, for us, and for the environment. And at Gibou, that's exactly where we want to go.
