Öko-Institut e.V.
Comparison of the European Ecolabel for textile products and the Blauer Engel for textiles using the bluesign® SYSTEM, 2012: “Based on the assessment of fulfillment of procedural and content requirements that a serious environmental label should meet, and based on the comparison with both environmental labels, EU Flower for textile products and Blauer Engel for textiles, the bluesign® SYSTEM can be highly recommended for reducing environmental impacts throughout the entire value-added chain of textiles. Particularly notably here is that BLUESIGN audits the individual businesses in the value-added chain and identifies potential improvements with regard to resource and power consumption, chemical use as well as workplace safety and specifies measures for optimization as part of its inspections.”

bluesign® academy
Knowledge has a particularly high value to BLUESIGN. It is only once we know how to improve the composition of chemicals, how to optimize their use or how we can use less water and power in the textile manufacturing process, that all of the components of textile products can be produced sustainably while effectively protecting people and the environment.
Shared knowledge and education
The main objective of our ACADEMY team is to share this knowledge and to make partner companies ready for an overall sustainable and environmentally friendly textile production. We want to provide valuable momentum and knowledge to further the well-being of people and the environment as well as the practical use of resources. To accomplish this, we make use of our proprietary continuing education offers, continuously develop our SERVICES and provide ongoing information to bluesign® SYSTEM PARTNERS.
