How to exclude empty tags exporting orders as XML file?

I am using PHP code in the plugin WP ALL EXPORT PRO to filter out specific orders from WooCommerce that contain relevant products with relevant details & options and then export them via XML / FTP to my fulfillment partner.

The values for details & options are different for each product. Therefore I need a code snippet to generally exclude empty tags when exporting in the XML file (Concerning the pink marked area in overview below).

How to exclude empty tags

USED CURRENT PHP CODE. THE SECTION //add options to the output IS TO BE CONSIDERED

<?php
    function my_get_order_items( $order_id ) {
        $order = wc_get_order( absint($order_id) ); // Get the WC_Order object
    
        if ( ! is_a($order, 'WC_Order') ) {
            return false; // Exit if not an order
        }
        $order_details = ""; // Initialize variable as string to store order details
    
        // Loop through order items
        foreach ( $order->get_items() as $item ) {
            if ( ! ( strpos($item->get_name(), 'KERAMIKTASSE') !== false
            || strpos($item->get_name(), 'BAUMWOLLTASCHE') !== false
            || strpos($item->get_name(), 'SWEATSHIRT') !== false
            || strpos($item->get_name(), 'HOODIE') !== false
            || strpos($item->get_name(), 'T-SHIRT') !== false ) ) { 
                continue; 
            }
            $product    = $item->get_product(); // Get the product object
            $product_id = $item->get_product_id(); // Get the product object
