Responsible Mohair Standard (RMS)

Textile Exchange's Responsible Mohair Standard (RMS) sets new standards for sustainability in the textile industry. This internationally recognized standard ensures that wool comes from animals that are kept in good conditions and that the environment is respected.
By adhering to strict criteria for animal welfare, land management and transparency, the RMS offers a clear and reliable guarantee that the products carrying this standard have been manufactured to the highest standards.

Animal welfare: The RMS ensures that the animals from which the wool comes are kept in an environment that meets their natural needs. This means less stress for the animals and a better quality of life.

Environmental protection: The RMS promotes sustainable practices in the areas of land management, water and energy consumption and the use of chemicals. This ensures that the environmental impact of wool production is minimized.

Transparency: The RMS guarantees that the origin of the wool can be traced back to the place of origin. Certification provides brands and consumers with a clear and reliable guarantee that products have been manufactured to the highest standards.

CERES carries out RMS audits worldwide. It is important to note that no farms are currently being certified. Instead, our offer is aimed at the further steps in the supply chain.
