Why organic cotton?
Organic cotton is grown and produced under environmentally sustainable conditions. Compared to conventionally grown cotton, it offers several advantages:
-
Environmental friendliness: organic cotton production does not use harmful chemicals and pesticides that pollute conventionally grown cotton. This results in less pollution, less soil erosion and a healthier ecosystem.
-
Health Benefits: Organic cotton is grown without the use of chemical fertilisers and pesticides, which reduces exposure to potentially harmful substances. This is especially beneficial for those who are sensitive to chemical residues or have skin problems.
-
Social responsibility: growing organic cotton promotes fairer working conditions for farmers and workers. Production processes are often more transparent and fair wages are paid. So by buying organic cotton, you are also supporting social responsibility and fair working conditions.
Some important production features of organic cotton are:
-
GMO-free: Growing organic cotton prohibits the use of genetically modified seeds. Instead, traditional cotton varieties are used to preserve biodiversity.
-
No chemical pesticides: organic cotton is grown without the use of harmful pesticides and chemical fertilisers. Instead, natural methods such as crop rotation, biological pest control and composting are used to protect the soil and plants.
-
Certification: organic cotton is tested and certified by independent certification bodies. The most well-known certifications are the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) and the Organic Content Standard (OCS). These certifications ensure that the cotton meets organic standards and that the entire supply chain is transparent and sustainable.
-
Water management: efficient water management methods are often used in the cultivation of organic cotton to reduce water consumption. These include, for example, the use of rainwater, low water loss irrigation systems and the use of natural water resources.
