What is eco-friendly?

What is organic cotton?

The conventional cultivation of cotton leads to massive environmental and health problems. Around the world, more toxic insecticides are used on cotton than on any other crop. A sustainable alternative is the certified organic cultivation. A field must be pesticide-free for at least three years to be certified organic, and the cotton must be processed according to international organic standards.
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.
Organic cotton, uses untreated seeds and never uses GMO(genetically modified organism) seeds. Organic cotton builds strong soil through crop rotation and retains water more efficiently.
