What is organic cotton?
Organic cotton is grown using methods and materials that have a low impact on the environment. Organic production systems replenish and maintain soil fertility, reduce the use of toxic and persistent pesticides and fertilizers, and build biologically diverse agriculture
Are all your items GOTS certified?
Our garments are not yet physically labelled with GOTS, and the reason is purely administrative.We have always worked with GOTS: first our suppliers guaranteed a compliant production, and then we got certified as a company to be able to promote the GOTS standard even more. However, being GOTS certified is an administrative heavy process, which also requires distribution centers and warehouses to be certified. That’s how GOTS can guarantee traceability, but that’s also why we haven’t been able to use the logo on our garments. In 2022, labeling garments became a mandatory requirement to even being allowed to promote GOTS online, so we are now working closely with our partners to be able to do so as soon as possible.
I have a question/doubt on the GOTS certification of a product.
Contact us via e-mail with the subject "GOTS Claim" if you have any questions or doubts about our GOTS certification. Add any picture or relevant information, and our CSR Manager will handle your request.
What is Fairtrade?
Fairtrade is a system of certification that aims to ensure a set of standards are met in the production and supply of a product or ingredient. For farmers and workers, Fairtrade means workers' rights, safer working conditions and fairer pay. For shoppers it means high quality, ethically produced products.
