Overview

Amazon's Climate Pledge Friendly (CPF) program helps shoppers identify products with sustainability certifications, and textile products are eligible through several recognized standards. Sellers with certified textile goods can earn the CPF badge on their product detail pages, but the enrollment process varies depending on which certification their products hold. Understanding the specific requirements and submission steps for each certification pathway is essential for qualifying and maintaining the badge.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Multiple certification pathways exist — Textile products can qualify through GOTS, OCS, GRS, RCS, RWS, Organic Content Standard (OT100), Leather Working Group (LWG), and Oeko-Tex STeP certifications, each with its own enrollment method.
• 50% certified materials minimum — Across nearly all certification types, your product must be composed of at least 50% certified materials to be eligible for the CPF badge.
• Valid scope certificate required — Sellers must provide a current, valid brand-level or supplier-level scope certificate as part of their application.
• Two-week review period — Amazon typically reviews submissions within two weeks, after which approved products automatically receive the CPF badge.
• Annual renewal is mandatory — Several key certifications are valid for only one year, and sellers must proactively manage re-certification to avoid losing the badge.

Enrollment for GOTS, OCS, GRS, RCS, RWS, and OT100 Certifications

Sellers whose textile products carry one of the major textile sustainability certifications — Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), Organic Content Standard (OCS 100 or OCS Blended), Global Recycled Standard (GRS), Recycled Claim Standard (RCS 100 or RCS Blended), Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), or Organic Content OT100 — follow a standardized submission process. To qualify, sellers must provide a valid brand-level scope certificate (or supplier-level for OT100) and confirm their product contains at least 50% certified materials. If a parent brand holds the certification but a child brand is applying, sellers can submit a transaction certificate with their brand name, a trademark registration form, or request that the issuing organization update the certificate. Once eligibility is confirmed, sellers enroll their products through Amazon's self-service program tool, and approved listings receive the CPF badge automatically within approximately two weeks.
