Sustainability and Certifications

At Carpetdocia, quality is measured not only by the appearance of a carpet but also by the source of the fiber it is made from, the dyeing method, and the ethical production chain behind it. A significant portion of our collections is certified by the most respected independent certifications in the textile industry. This page explains what these certifications mean and why they are important for you.

OEKO-TEX® Standard 100

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 is one of the world's strictest testing standards that independently verifies that textile products do not contain harmful chemicals to human health. A carpet being OEKO-TEX certified means that every component, from the yarn to the dye, stays below harmful substance limits — a critical assurance especially for floors that children and pets come into contact with.

Sedex Ethical Trade

Sedex (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange) is a global platform that documents ethical working conditions and responsible sourcing in the production chain. This membership indicates that our carpets are not only beautiful but also produced under fair conditions.

TENCEL™ (Lyocell)

TENCEL™ is a botanical fiber obtained from sustainable forest resources and processed through a closed-loop production process. Almost all the water and solvents used in this process are recovered. The result: a silky texture, natural breathability, and a low environmental footprint. You can explore our TENCEL collection.

Wools of New Zealand™

Wools of New Zealand is a quality mark that guarantees traceability in wool fiber, high animal welfare standards, and environmentally friendly production. For our wool carpets, this standard means both durability and naturalness. Check out our wool carpets collection.

Natural Fibers: Jute, Sisal, and Wool

Unlike synthetic alternatives, jute, sisal, and wool are renewable, biodegradable, and processed with low energy. Our jute carpets and handwoven carpets collections combine the durability and texture of these fibers with modern design.

Why Are These Certifications Important for You?

  • Health: Floors safe for home use without harmful chemicals.
  • Environment: Low water and energy consumption, recycling, and natural fibers.
  • Ethics: Fair working conditions and responsible supply chain.
  • Durability: Quality natural fiber for years of use.
