Organic cotton is cotton that has been grown on fields without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides or defoliants.

Only natural fertilizers such as compost and animal manure are allowed. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are prohibited in organic products.

We source most of our organic cotton from Turkey and India. Our organic cotton from India comes from the state-of-the-art organic cotton and Fairtrade project called Chetna Organic.

The coalition in Chetna is a network of different brands that share the same goal of sourcing fair organic cotton for their supply chain. The goal is to improve the livelihood options of smallholder farmers by making their farm systems more sustainable and profitable and creating access to ethical and fair-trade markets for cotton.

By using Fairtrade certified organic cotton, we ensure the wellbeing of farmers and their families with decent payment, fair working conditions and organic farming methods.
