Frequently asked questions

What is organic cotton?

Organic cotton is a fibre whose production process is designed to be as ecologically sustainable as possible. No pesticides, insecticides or other chemicals are used on organic cotton fields, so the soil retains its fertility. By excluding chemicals from organic cotton production, local bodies of water are not polluted, and the work environment is much safer for human health.

Organic cotton is mostly watered by rainwater. It is estimated that up to 80% of the crops are irrigated like this. Thanks to that, it is possible to reduce water consumption in the textile industry considerably. Cottonseed oil, a by-product of the organic cotton production process, is used in food and cosmetics.

Although the price of organic cotton is usually higher than that of the conventionally-grown one, by investing in organic fibres, you not only receive a high-quality product, but you also contribute to reduced water consumption, cleaner air and improved working conditions for the farmers who work in the cotton fields.

What is GOTS certification?

GOTS certification, or Global Organic Textile Standards, is a textile processing standard that does not allow the use of bleaches, chemicals or dyes during the production process. The GOTS certification process is highly restrictive, so when buying fabrics certified in accordance with this standard, you can be sure that the product meets the highest environmental and social criteria. Proper water management is essential for the GOTS standard.

A manufacturer who applies for the certificate is obliged to use treatment plants and a closed water cycle. It is an extremely crucial aspect in cotton and flax manufacturers, where fabrics are spun wet. The GOTS standard examines every stage of the textile production process, but that is not all. To be GOTS-certified, the supply and distribution chains must also meet specific social and environmental requirements.

The GOTS certificate is issued for one year and is renewable. Every year the certified manufacturer is audited to check whether the company complies with the standard.

What can you sew using organic cotton?

You can use organic cotton everywhere you would use its conventional counterpart. It is used to produce both woven and knitted fabrics, which you can use to create clothes, underwear, bed linen and home décor. Organic cotton fabrics are not only environmentally friendly but also safe for the skin. These fabrics do not irritate, even in the case of sensitive skin, do not sensitise and are safe even for the youngest.

Sewing using organic cotton is no different from sewing using conventional cotton. Both woven and knitted fabrics made from organic cotton are easy and pleasant to sew, machine washable, as well as pleasant to the touch and airy.
