In today’s global market, transparency and ethical sourcing have become essential. Our comprehensive Cotton Origin Verification Services, supported by Geodentify, offer a trusted, science‑based way for businesses to verify and certify where their cotton was grown - helping you align with regulatory requirements, protect your brand, and meet consumer expectations.
Our origin testing provides an in-depth analysis, using advanced methodologies tailored to verify the environmental fingerprint of your cotton matches the fingerprint of the claimed origin of your cotton products. Whether you’re working with raw cotton or finished goods, including cotton blends (such as cotton/polyester and cotton/elastane), our tests ensure accurate origin claims and sustainable sourcing. In addition, we provide feedback on blends. If you are buying 100% cotton, is it? If it's a cotton /elastane blend are there any other synthetic fibres present?
Screening Test for Raw Cotton: A rapid, reliable screening test designed to confirm the claimed origin of raw cotton, perfect for initial verification steps. This test detects geographical indicators unique to specific cotton-growing regions.
Comprehensive Origin Test for Finished Products: For finished textiles, blends, and processed products, our advanced testing combines Stable Isotope Ratio Analysis with Trace Elemental Analysis to authenticate the origin of cotton even after processing. This makes our testing applicable to a wide range of materials, including dyed, blended, or chemically treated cotton, and synthetic blends.
