Our Organic Cotton
Products is to connect our supply chains down to the farm to
ensure we understand conditions on the ground and have the
ability to work as partners on the solutions. Thus far, we
have succeeded in doing so for our organic cotton blend
t-shirt program and seek to do the same for our organic
cotton woven materials.

Why We Choose
Organic Cotton.
|
Organic
cotton sustains the health of soils, ecosystems, and people.
Its
cultivation relies on ecological processes and cycles, rather
than artificial inputs which can have unintended adverse
effects.

Growing
conventional cotton uses 11 times more water than organic cotto n.
Regular
cotton is grown with harmful pesticides that leach into the
environment, while organic cotton is made using beneficial
insects.
Organic
cotton contributes less than half as much to the world?s rising
CO2 emissions as regular cotton does.
Conventional cotton has had a disastrous effect on the lives of
many farmers, while organic cotton is far more ethical.
Regular
cotton can cause less-than-desirable side effects to the skin,
but organic cotton is hypoallergenic. |
