| Know before using | A company result is not a blanket approval; confirm the certificate scope, validity, facility, process, product, and transaction documentation for the exact purchase. | The record does not create product specifications, prove fit or manufacturability, select materials or construction settings, establish legal compliance, reproduce licensed standards, or replace qualified technical, production, quality, testing, sourcing, logistics, safety, compliance, and legal review. | This is a length-unit translation reference. It does not identify the measured feature; select, approve, or change a seam allowance; establish a universal fraction; interpret an unstated cutting or stitching line; or replace the exact pattern version, controlled specification, material and seam evidence, sample, production method, equipment, tolerance, or release authority. |

| What the source establishes | The official GOTS search exposes certified entities by country, field of operation, product category, and certification detail, including processing and trading scopes. | The guide cites published ISO documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam sources plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it discloses ISO 10013:2021's current review stage, and its working record makes organization-specific requirements, suppliers, evidence, issues, and approvals explicit. | NIST states that 10 millimetres equal 1 centimetre and that one inch is exactly 25.4 millimetres. The tool uses those relationships, displays rounded equivalents, exposes the size difference to the nearest 1/16 inch when converting to inches, and preserves valid value, source-unit, and target-unit state in the URL. |
