Our certifications:
BCI
Some of our cotton is produced according to the guidelines of the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI). BCI is a global non-profit organization and the largest cotton sustainability program in the world. BCI started over ten years ago with the aim of improving global cotton production for both cotton growers and the future of the environmental and cotton sector.
BCI truly supports cotton farmers. The focus is on providing training and learning opportunities for these farmers to adopt more environmentally, socially and economically sustainable production practices. Our BCI-certified cotton farmers produce cotton in a manner that is environmentally responsible. For example, by minimising the negative effects of fertilisers and pesticides and caring for water, soil health and the natural habitat.
Oeko-tex
Rogon wants to be sure that we offer a good and safe product. Therefore, our products are Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified. Oeko-Tex Standard 100 is a global certification system for both raw materials and textile products. In Rogon, it concerns both the cushion cover, pillow filler and our plaids and poufs.
Our entire production process is tested so that we can say with certainty that our articles are harmless to humans. Our products are tested for compliance with the legal rules and regulations concerning environmentally harmful substances such as heavy metals, harmful colourings and plant protection products.
