Source and review
What the source establishesThe guide cites current ISO documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam sources plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; its working record makes organization-specific requirements, suppliers, evidence, issues, and approvals explicit.The official GOTS search exposes certified entities by country, field of operation, product category, and certification detail, including processing and trading scopes.The calculator uses the NIST SP 811 Appendix B.8 conversion from avoirdupois ounces per square yard to kilograms per square metre and links to a source-reviewed fabric mass record for method, sampling, conditioning, and product controls.
