Organic cotton is the fibre that we use the most, over 80%. All the virgin cotton we use is fully organic and GOTS-certified. By using organic cotton we protect the local environment, biodiversity, the farmer and the workers. Some benefits summed up:
Organic farming practices eliminate the use of synthetic pesticides and artificial fertilisers. No nasty pesticides on your cotton.
No nasty pesticides will leach into the soil or groundwater. Rebalancing the soil will also help it retain water longer, decreasing irrigation.
There is no human meddling in seed genetics. GMO-free seeds are cheaper and don't need expensive pesticides. Organic farming and rotation cropping support farmers' livelihoods.
