25 years of partnership between the European Mazda Group and Ötscher-Berufskleidung

Sustainability and quality in focus


The long-standing partnership between Mazda and Ötscher Berufskleidung is celebrating its 25th anniversary. Ötscher has been the proud holder of a Europe-wide license to manufacture workwear for Mazda specialist workshops since 1998. As an internationally operating company, Mazda has always set high quality, environmental and social standards, also with regard to workwear.


Ötscher has fulfilled this requirement from the very beginning and has proven this through various certifications such as ISO 9001 in 1998 and ISO 14001 in 2015, as well as membership of amfori BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) for many years. Both companies share the conviction that social working conditions and sustainability are of the utmost importance.


Ötscher-Berufskleidung Götzl GmbH has recently completed another certification: the OEKO-TEX® STeP ("Sustainable Textile and Leather Production") certification at the highest level 3. OEKO-TEX® STeP is an internationally recognized certification system that evaluates strict standards in the areas of quality, environmental protection, social responsibility and occupational safety throughout the entire textile supply chain and thus promotes transparency in the supply chain. This makes Ötscher the first Austrian company in its sector to receive this prestigious certification.


Ötscher's Mazda collection consists of high-quality European blended fabric, is produced in Europe and comprises two lines: "Mazda single branding" and "Mazda multibranding". With a customer webshop in 18 different languages, Ötscher ensures that Mazda workshops throughout Europe have access to high-quality workwear.


Thiemo Götzl, Managing Director of Ötscher Berufskleidung, emphasizes: "We are proud to have supported Mazda for 25 years in meeting their demanding workwear requirements. This partnership shows how close cooperation and the pursuit of sustainability and quality can create long-term success." (red.)
