Germany's Hohenstein establishes quality label for tested pet supplies
15 Dec 21 1 min read
The product label provides pet owners with quick validation of quality claims. Beyond its standard physical tests, the quality label can be flexibly extended depending on the intended use, Hohenstein said in a media release.
Additional testing includes comfort and performance properties such as chew and scratch resistance, outdoor suitability, water repellence, waterproofness and air permeability.
The number of pets in private households is growing every year. With many caring for pets as full members of the family, US pet owners spent $103.6 billion in 2020 (American Pet Products Association, 2021).
“The Hohenstein Quality Label - Tested Pet Supplies is independent proof of quality. It joins the ranks of existing Hohenstein quality labels that offer highly credible trust to customers in trade and consumer markets,” the release said.
