ORGANIC COTTON
Organic cotton is a natural plant-based fiber obtained from the cotton plant, a shrub grown in over 90 countries.
Unlike its conventional version, organic cotton is grown in favor of nature and not against it, meaning without genetically modified seeds and free of toxic chemicals.
What are its benefits?
In organic cotton cultivation, only non-GMO seeds are used on land where crop rotation is practiced, helping to keep soils healthy and fertile. In addition, these unmodified seeds will naturally provide farmers with new seeds that can be used in future crops.
The plantation is nourished solely with natural fertilizers, eliminating chemical fertilizers and pesticides. These types of chemicals are also eliminated from the washing, softening, or bleaching processes, making them more environmentally friendly and helping us save water, energy, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Overall, a series of practices are triggered that improve the health of the land and of all those who work and live near cotton plantations.
