What's in our products — and why? On this page, we show which materials we use, how we continuously improve them and which standards we follow along the way.

Materials & Certifications

Our material choices matter.
Based on our material analysis, we're gradually assessing where the use of recycled materials can be meaningfully increased and where alternative fibres could be an option. In doing so, we make sure that function, quality and wearing comfort of our products are maintained.

We also check where certified organic* cotton can replace conventional cotton. When selecting our materials, we follow recognised standards.

*organic: from organic farming, without chemical-synthetic pesticides and fertilizers

Since December 2025, we are certified according to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS). The standard verifies the share of recycled materials and enables their traceability along the supply chain. Additionally, it includes requirements for environmental management, chemical use as well as social criteria at processing facilities. First styles like the Brandy Top and the Brandy Pant already carry GRS certification.

More certifications are on the way: In October 2026, our audit for the Grüner Knopf (Green Button) took place. In November 2026, our audit for GOTS, OCS, RCS and RWS will follow. Both audits cover the entire SNOCKS GROUP, which OCEANSAPART is part of. As soon as the results are in, we’ll let you know here.
