OBEE's baby diaper range — manufactured by Maxier, OBEE's parent production entity — has received the internationally recognised OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification. This independent verification confirms that every material and component used in our diapers has been rigorously tested and found free from harmful substances.
What is OEKO-TEX Standard 100?
OEKO-TEX Standard 100 is one of the world's best-known and most trusted labels for textiles and hygiene products tested for harmful substances. Issued by the OEKO-TEX Association — an independent international testing and certification body — the Standard 100 label guarantees that every component of a product, including threads, buttons, and prints, has passed testing for more than 100 individual substances that are known to be potentially harmful to human health.
- Allergen sources and sensitising dyes
- Heavy metals (lead, cadmium, chromium, etc.)
- Pesticide residues
- pH value outside the skin-neutral range
- Formaldehyde and other chemical residues
- Substances restricted or prohibited by EU and international regulation
Why This Matters for Baby Products
Baby skin is significantly more delicate and permeable than adult skin, making the safety of materials in direct contact with newborns and infants a critical concern for parents and healthcare providers. Diapers are worn for extended periods every day, making the absence of harmful substances non-negotiable.
The OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification's limit values frequently exceed current national and international regulatory requirements, providing an additional safety margin. The criteria are reviewed and updated annually to incorporate the latest scientific findings and evolving global regulations.
OBEE's Commitment to Quality Beyond Compliance
Navigating the complex landscape of global chemical regulations is a significant challenge for hygiene manufacturers. Rather than simply meeting minimum legal requirements, OBEE has chosen to pursue independent third-party certification — ensuring that every partner and every parent can trust the products that carry the OBEE name.
Every OBEE baby diaper undergoes rigorous quality assurance testing before leaving the factory. The OEKO-TEX certification is one of twelve international standards we hold — a reflection of our commitment to safety-first manufacturing.
