Shatnez Notice!

Warning: Unqualified Shatnez Testers at Work!! ­ Dear friend,   I hope this message finds you well! Recent findings highlight the crucial need to use only qualified shatnez laboratories for testing. Below, you can see the leftover linen in a Hugo Boss woolen suit, resulting from an unqualified shatnez tester's "shatnez removal". The shatnez suit was then worn for an extended period!

Similarly, Vaad L'Mishmeres Shatnez recommends that all rekelach and bekeshes be properly tested, rather than blindly assuming they are free of shatnez concerns. The unfounded belief that they cannot contain shatnez should not be part of a True Torah Jew's mindset.

­ It is essential to have your shatnez testing done only at a qualified shatnez laboratory. Proper garment testing can be very challenging and should only be conducted by a qualified shatnez laboratory.
