🌱 Sustainability

Certifications you can actually trust.

Every product in our catalog carries an independent, third-party certification β€” because "eco" without a verifier is just marketing.

Green Promo Wear's catalog is deliberately narrow. Instead of stocking everything and letting you filter by "sustainable", we filter up front: only items certified by at least one of the programs below make it into the store.

Here's what each of those certifications actually verifies β€” and why it matters for the clothes that represent your brand.

GOTS

Global Organic Textile Standard

Traces organic fibers all the way from farm to finished garment β€” covering organic content, chemical inputs, processing wastewater, and worker conditions at every step of the supply chain.

OEKO-TEX 100

Tested for harmful substances

Every component β€” thread, buttons, zippers, and prints β€” is tested against 100+ regulated substances. Often stricter than EU law, it's the reason certified garments are safe against skin.

GRS

Global Recycled Standard

Verifies recycled content (minimum 20%) plus chain of custody, chemical restrictions, and social responsibility across every supplier in the production chain.

OCS 100

Organic Content Standard

Certifies that a product contains 95–100% organically grown material, with an independent audit covering the full supply chain β€” without OCS, you're simply trusting a label.

PETA Vegan

PETA-Approved Vegan

Guarantees the product contains no animal-derived materials β€” no leather, wool, silk, fur, feathers, or bone β€” and no animal-tested components anywhere in the supply chain.

Beyond the certification stamp

A certified garment is the starting point. These are the other decisions we make on your behalf:

  • A curated catalog. We don't stock products that don't qualify β€” so you can't accidentally order a non-certified item.
  • Production partners in Europe where possible, to keep supply chains short and well-regulated.
  • CO2 offsetting on every order through our partner, who in turn works with Native.
  • An ordering flow designed to reduce over-ordering. Sizes are collected per recipient rather than guessed in bulk β€” the single biggest waste lever in promotional apparel.
