Indicative references from public listings or category guides, checked 15 October 2026. Comparable grades are identified beside each price; blend, count, construction, colour and order quantity may differ. The merino category guide dates from April 2026. These are reference prices, not a real-time index or a firm quotation. Tax, freight, testing, packaging and final commercial terms require confirmation. Where no defensible comparable price was found, a quote is required.
Have a matching label or another specification?
Send your yarn brief ↗A reference sample, a clear specification and written approvals give your enquiry a practical starting point. Pupulan coordinates these details with the proposed supply partner.
Confirm the yarn.
Review the colour.
Approve the knitted result.
Record fibre percentages, count system and ply, construction, colour and quantity. A yarn label, cone sample or target fabric can help clarify missing details.
Request the appropriate yarn sample or colour reference. Confirm sample charges, availability and any custom-dyeing requirements before proceeding.
Use the intended machine gauge, stitch and finishing process. Review hand feel, appearance and fabric weight; agree on any required pilling, colourfastness, shrinkage or strength checks.
Confirm the accepted sample, specification, quality criteria, packing and commercial terms in writing. Agree on the checks and documents needed for the order.
Count and ply: Nm and Ne are indirect systems; denier and tex are direct systems. Compare like systems and clarify the complete notation before ordering.
Fibre names: request full composition percentages. TENCEL™ is a fibre brand; specify the required generic fibre and any branded-fibre evidence separately.
Specify the standard your order needs. Organic and recycled content, animal welfare, chemical testing and facility management cover different requirements; check the relevant certificate and scope.
Choose a topic below to read what each mark means and open its official guidance.
The US National Organic Program seal identifies products and operations meeting applicable organic requirements. Its use for a textile claim needs the relevant certified scope.
USDA official guidance ↗The Global Organic Textile Standard covers processing of textiles made with certified organic fibres, including environmental and social criteria along the applicable supply chain.
GOTS official standard ↗The Organic Content Standard verifies certified organic material content and its chain of custody. It is not a comprehensive chemical-safety or labour certification.
Textile Exchange official standards ↗The Global Recycled Standard addresses recycled content and chain of custody, with additional processing, social, environmental and chemical requirements in its applicable scope.
Textile Exchange official standards ↗This wording describes sourcing claims, but the supplied artwork does not establish a unique standard owner. Ask for the named scheme, supporting records and certificate scope. The link provides traceability background, not verification of this particular mark.
Official chain-of-custody background ↗The Responsible Wool Standard addresses sheep welfare and land management, together with chain-of-custody requirements for the certified wool.
Textile Exchange official standards ↗ICCAW works on animal-welfare practices and standards in China. Its organisational mark alone does not prove that a particular yarn or supplier holds a valid certificate.
ICCAW official website ↗An Aid by Trade Foundation standard covering cashmere goat welfare, people, the environment and management within its defined production and supply-chain scope.
GCS official standard ↗The Sustainable Fibre Alliance develops standards and assurance programmes for responsible animal-fibre production, processing and traceability. Membership and certified product coverage are different claims.
SFA official website ↗A label for textiles tested for harmful substances against the applicable criteria. Check the certificate number, product scope and validity; this label does not mean the fibre is organic.
OEKO-TEX official standard ↗A framework for setting and validating corporate greenhouse-gas reduction targets. Target validation is not a product certificate or proof that a yarn is carbon neutral.
SBTi official explanation ↗A product-carbon-footprint mark relates to the assessment identified in its supporting report. Results depend on the product, functional unit, boundary and period. The number in the reference artwork is not a footprint value for all yarns on this page.
CEPREI official website ↗ISO 9001 concerns an organisation's quality management system. The SGS graphic identifies a certification body; a management-system certificate does not certify every yarn's composition or performance.
ISO official guidance ↗The Higg Facility Social & Labor Module is a facility assessment tool covering social and labour practices. An assessment or verification result is not a yarn-product certificate.
Cascale official Higg guidance ↗The Higg Facility Environmental Module assesses facility environmental performance. Review the assessment period, facility and verification status rather than treating the logo as a product label.
Cascale official Higg guidance ↗ISO 14001 concerns environmental management systems. The artwork shows ISO 14001:2015; the applicable edition, site, scope and validity must be checked on the actual certificate.
ISO official guidance ↗ISO 45001 concerns occupational health and safety management systems. It relates to the certified organisation and site, rather than the organic content or safety performance of an individual yarn.
ISO official guidance ↗Official guidance reviewed 15 October 2026. The artwork includes older label designs and management-standard editions. Use the actual certificate and current programme rules to establish coverage. The exact owner of the “Traceable Cashmere / Organic Cashmere” artwork has not been established; its link provides general chain-of-custody background.
