Why OCS Certification Matters—and Why You'll Love It

Why OCS Certification Matters—and Why You'll Love It

At BAMBOO COOL, caring isn't just a feeling—it's a way of doing things, from the fabrics we choose to the certifications we trust. We know you care, too. You want what touches your skin to be safe, pure, and truly sustainable.

 

That's where OCS certification comes in.

In a world full of “organic” claims, OCS helps you shop with real confidence—and makes every choice you make a little kinder to the world.

 

What Is OCS Certification?

OCS, or Organic Content Standard, is all about making sure the organic materials in your products are real—and traceable. Created by Textile Exchange in 2013, it tracks organic fibers from the farm all the way to the finished product, verified by independent third parties.

 

In a world full of “organic” claims, OCS gives you real proof—not just promises. Every certified product comes with Transaction Certificates (TCs) that track material flow and annual audits that maintain the standard over time.

 

Two Levels of OCS Labels

OCS 100

(BAMBOO COOL Bamboo Viscose Men’s Underwear OCS 100)

Products made with at least 95% certified organic material (with just a tiny bit allowed for functional fibers, like stretch).

 

OCS BLENDED

(BAMBOO COOL Bamboo Viscose Men’s Underwear OCS BLENDED)

Products that mix organic and non-organic fibers, but still have at least 5% organic content by weight.

 

Why OCS Matters to You

OCS certification helps you live comfortably, feel good while supporting the future of our planet.

 

Keeping You and Your Skin Safe

Choosing organic materials is like giving yourself and your family a health boost. With OCS certification, you can trust your clothes are free from harmful pesticides and chemicals, making them safer and more comfortable to wear.

 

OCS-certified organic materials, like bamboo and cotton, are perfect for sensitive skin. Since they're grown without synthetic pesticides or toxic chemicals, and harmful substances are avoided in production, these fabrics are purer, gentler, and kinder to your skin.

 

Real Organic, Truly Traceable—Not Just Words

 

We believe promises should be backed by action, not just pretty words.

That's why OCS certification matters—it proves that our products truly contain organic materials, with every step from farm to final products carefully tracked and verified.

✅ Every fiber is documented.
✅ Every stage is independently audited.
✅ Every product can proudly tell its story.

 

In a world where "sustainable" is often just a marketing buzzword, OCS keeps things real. It gives you the confidence that what you're wearing isn't just labeled organic—it is organic, with the receipts to prove it.

For mindful shoppers who care about what they consume—and the impact it has—OCS is like a small light guiding every good choice you make.

 

Standing Up for the Planet—and Everyone Who Makes It Possible

Choosing OCS-certified products isn't just about feeling good in what you wear—it's about doing good, too.

Protecting Ecosystems

Organic farming avoids harmful pesticides and fertilizers, protecting soil, water, and biodiversity, and helping fight climate change. Every choice you make helps keep the planet a little cleaner and a little healthier.

Supporting Fair and Responsible Practices

OCS supports responsible agriculture that respects the land, honors farmers' livelihoods, and values ethical production. Your purchase supports a supply chain built on fairness, transparency, and real care.

 

OCS & Bamboo Cool

At BAMBOO COOL, we believe in one simple belief: WEAR THAT CARES — for the product, the people, and the planet.

We're serious about real bamboo: it should come from verified, traceable sources, made with care for the Earth and everyone involved. That's why we're proud to be early movers in building the OCS-certified bamboo viscose supply chain.

 

All our bamboo fabrics are certified by FSC or OCS, so you know they come from responsible or organic bamboo forests. We make clothes that feel good — and do good — for your skin and the world around you.
