QUALITY AND CERTIFICATIONS

How do you know a fabric is safe?

At Marsala, our core value is trustworthiness. We firmly believe that honesty and reliability are fundamental in the world of business, and our loyal clients can vouch for our unwavering commitment. With a proven track record of delivering top-quality services, we take immense pride in our enduring relationships with both our esteemed clientele and manufacturing partners.

When you decide to collaborate with Marsala, you're choosing a dynamic international team with over 20 years of experience in connecting our clients with manufacturers who cater to their unique needs, regardless of order size. Our extensive network of manufacturers is diverse, accommodating small quantities (300-500pcs) to large-scale production. Our manufacturers hold certifications such as OEKO-TEX Standard 100, ensuring that all materials and products, from raw materials to finished goods, meet stringent health and safety standards, free from harmful substances. Additionally, they have BSCI certification, safeguarding workers' rights and safety.

Marsala offers a wide range of apparel, including women's and young ladies' tops, bottoms, and dresses (both petite and plus sizes), men's wear, sportswear, and children's clothing. We maintain a vast inventory of prints, laces, embroideries, and knitted fabrics and excel in pattern development. If needed, we can source any desired materials for our clients. The only fabric we do not handle is denim. We also stay updated on the latest trends in fabrics, designs, and styles, offering samples to ensure client satisfaction.

Our suppliers cater to various price ranges and product categories, and Marsala is committed to negotiating the best terms while maintaining high-quality standards. Our approach is to meet all our clients' needs comprehensively. We provide inspection at every stage of production, from fabric production and pattern creation to final quality control and product packaging, all while keeping you informed. We leave nothing to chance, maintain direct communication with suppliers and sub-suppliers, and guarantee that your fashion lines will surpass your expectations.

Every product's production consumes resources and generates waste. However, if you wish to reduce the adverse environmental effects of the products you purchase, pay attention to certifications. Our suppliers hold one or more of the following certifications, ensuring environmentally responsible practices.

BSCI is neither an auditing company nor an accreditation system:

BSCI provides companies with a social auditing methodology and report. It does not organize audits itself but provides a network of external accredited, experienced, and independent auditing companies. Also, as part of the BSCI approach, social audits only represent one pillar of activity, complementary to capacity building and strong relations with all stakeholders of the supply chain.

Better Cotton Initiative

The Better Cotton Initiative exists to make global cotton production better for the people who produce it, the environment it grows in and better for the sector’s future.

Be part of something better.

The STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® is a globally recognized, independent testing and certification system for raw, semi-finished, and finished textile products at all processing levels, as well as accessory materials used.

Examples of articles that can be certified include raw and dyed/finished yarns, woven and knitted fabrics, accessories such as buttons, zip fasteners, sewing threads, or labels, and ready-made articles of various types (garments of all types, domestic and household textiles, bed linens, terry products, and much more).

GOTS – Global Organic Textile Standard

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the world's foremost textile processing standard for organic fibers, encompassing ecological and social criteria, and supported by independent certification of the entire textile supply chain. The goal of this standard is to define globally recognized requirements that ensure the organic status of textiles, from the harvesting of raw materials through environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing, all the way to labeling, in order to provide credible assurance to the end consumer. Textile processors and manufacturers should be able to export their organic fabrics and garments with a single certification accepted in all major markets.
