This annual report offers you a tour of our successes, the most important research projects and results, and gives you an overview of some special new devices and of the unique services we offer to companies.

During the second half of 2020, other activities largely recovered. Despite the crisis, the number of Oeko-tex® orders and the certification portfolio grew. In the area of research activities, we achieved good results on which we can build further. 
The virus does not give in so easily. Home working, social distancing and hygiene measures will remain fixed topics in 2021 as well. In addition, the Brexit will have a major impact on our certification activities. Despite all agreements, the UK is starting its own certification system, UKCA. It is our task to offer a suitable answer to this, so that we can offer companies both CE marking and UKCA.

As in previous years, we continue to invest in our future for which the Standing Committee approved a budget of almost EUR 2 million.
