Cone Denim Jiaxing facility gets Oeko-Tex certification on selected denim products

Cone Denim (Jiaxing) Limited is a large-scale denim manufacturing enterprise located in Jiaxing Economic Development Zone, Zhejiang Province, which was jointly contributed by International Textile Group from USA and Novel Group from Hong Kong in 2005, then turning into US sole proprietorship in 2011, has announced that its Cone Denim Jiaxing (CDJ) facility has received OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification on selected denim products.

The CDJ operation opened in 2007 has produced industry-leading denims, both rigid and stretch, including S-Gene® products with high performance, patented technology exclusively from Cone Denim. The CDJ facility is a state-of-the- art vertically integrated denim fabric operation known for its performance and premium denims.

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification provides transparency in the textile supply chain and assures consumers that certified products have been produced without the use of illegal, regulated or other known harmful substances. The “Confidence in Textiles” motto designates independent testing for harmful substances for textile products of all types which pose no risk to health since 1992.

Kevin Reardon, Vice President of Sales Cone Denim said that Oeko-Tex certification provides their customers and ultimately the consumer an added level of confidence in CDJ’s fabrics.

Certified labs and proprietary process control systems are central to producing high quality fabrics with exceptional shade and physical consistency.

They maintain a commitment to responsible manufacturing throughout their global operations and continually look for ways to improve their sustainable practices and minimize their environmental footprint – while at the same time pushing the limits of denim innovation and styling.

The plant is strategically located in Jiaxing, contributing to Cone’s long-term strategy of providing customers with innovative and market-driven denims and services from a comprehensive global network of manufacturing platforms.
