Bamboo, part of the grass family can be harvested easily by simply cutting off the stems without disturbing the root system and grows fast with virtually no maintenance. Being a rapidly regenerative plant, bamboo does not need replanting and grows on its own without much effort. This remarkable plant does not need much resources such as water either and holds the soil in place which means it is friendly to the ecosystem and therefore highly sustainable. A hectare of bamboo produces sixty tons of fibre as opposed to cotton which can produce only two tons from a hectare.

Organic cotton is softer than the cotton grown using conventional methods. Our GOTS certified organic cotton is sourced from organically grown and certified manufacturers. Conventional growing methods use an astounding 30% of the world’s insecticide and pesticide. In many countries, this also means that workers are exposed to multitudes of harmful and toxic chemicals. Organically grown cotton does not use genetically modified organism (GMO), pesticides or insecticides. This also means that they are a healthier and sustainable alternative and much softer and more comfortable which feels wonderful on the skin.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) states that exposure to pesticide poisoning during the manufacturing process is the cause of a high number of deaths each year especially in developing countries (WHO,1994). Pesticides are also linked to chronic illnesses such as cancer, migraines and reproductive issues which means that cotton workers are exposed to such illnesses (WHO, 2018).
