Why GOLS?

Supported by manufacturers and various stakeholders in the latex industry, GOLS has became a globally recognized standard for products made out of organically grown natural rubber latex.

The aim of the standard is to recognize products which may include, but not limited to, mattresses & bedding products, gloves, bands, shoe soles, rubber toys, condoms and any other product made out of organically grown natural rubber latex. These products may contain not only certified natural rubber latex but also other approved additional materials and accessories. In order to label the final product as GOLS-certified, it is paramount that all the raw materials in the product (other than approved additional materials/accessories) comply with the requirements on organic origin.
