Fibre Standard
The Global Fashion Halal Standard (GFHS) for Fibre establishes strict guidelines for certifying fibres used in the textile, leather, and fashion industries. This certification ensures that fibres comply with Islamic principles, aligns with Islamic values and sustainability goals. From natural fibres like cotton and wool to synthetic and regenerated fibres, GFHS certification guarantees materials are halal-compliant,that every fibre used is free from haram (forbidden) substances
Halal-compliant synthetic fibers are man-made materials derived from chemical substances, primarily from petroleum-based sources. These fibers are produced through a polymerization process, where small molecules (monomers) are chemically linked to form long chains (polymers). The production process ensures that no haram substances are used, making these fibers suitable for halal use. Examples of such fibers include polyester, nylon, acrylic, and spandex.
Halal-compliant regenerated fibers are produced from natural materials, such as wood pulp or plant-based cellulose, through a chemical process that transforms the raw material into fibers. These fibers are created by dissolving the cellulose and reconstituting it into a fiber form, ensuring that no haram substances are involved in the process. The production method guarantees the fibers are suitable for halal use. Common examples of regenerated fibers include rayon, viscose, and lyocell.
