We trust in OEKO-TEX®
Because responsible materials are the foundation of good design.
At nydo, good living begins with materials you can trust. Fabrics don't just define the look of a room. They also determine how it feels, how durable it is, and how consciously it was produced.
That's why we rely on textiles certified according to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 – a globally recognized test mark that goes far beyond legal requirements. For us, it's proof of quality; for you, it's assurance of sustainable design.
What OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 truly means
OEKO-TEX® is one of the strictest independent testing and certification systems for textiles. The certificate confirms that a fabric contains no harmful substances – in every single component.
Tested substances include:
- Pesticides
- Forbidden or problematic dyes
- Heavy metals
- Soluble heavy metal residues
- Plasticizers
- VOCs (volatile organic compounds)
- Allergy-inducing or sensitizing chemicals
- Residues from manufacturing processes
OEKO-TEX® tests these substances more strictly than national laws require – and not just for the visible surface, but also for components like yarns, dyes, or coatings. Only when everything meets the limit values is the material allowed to bear the label.
In short: OEKO-TEX® certifies only what is truly safe – for you, for your home, and for the environment.
Why nydo consistently relies on OEKO-TEX®
For us, design is not an end in itself. Every material we choose must be durable, feel good, and be produced responsibly. OEKO-TEX® certification supports precisely this claim.
1. Everyday Safety
You and your loved ones use your nydo sofa every day – whether for comfortable sitting, leaning back, or relaxing together. That's why our fabrics are not only aesthetic but also demonstrably safe for your health. OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 guarantees that no harmful residues remain in the material.
This gives you the freedom to focus on what matters most: comfort and the feeling of home.
2. Responsible Manufacturing
Sustainability doesn't start with the finished sofa – it arises with every decision along the supply chain. Our European partner weaving mills operate according to strict OEKO-TEX® standards. This means:
- Controlled processes
- Reduced pollutant loads
- Careful use of raw materials
- Transparent production steps
The certificate shows that a material was conceived responsibly not only in its outcome but already in its manufacturing.
3. Lasting Quality
Less polluting production processes often also mean more stable, more durable fabrics. Fibers processed without aggressive chemicals retain their structure better. Colors remain brilliant longer. Haptics and form remain perceptibly high-quality over time.
The result is a fabric that stays beautiful for a long time – and thus makes a real contribution to sustainability.
Why sustainability and aesthetics complement each other perfectly
There's a persistent myth that sustainable materials mean limitations – fewer colors, fewer textures, less design freedom. For us, the opposite is true.
Good design emerges where material quality, aesthetics, and responsibility converge.
Our promise: Beauty with principles
When you order a nydo fabric sample and choose a cover, you get a material that fulfills two things at once:
It looks good. And it is well-made.
OEKO-TEX® certification is not the goal, but the foundation. It ensures that our fabrics are not only timeless and aesthetic but also long-term responsible – for you, for your home, and for the world we live in.
