What is organic cotton | Natural and renewable, organic cotton is eco-friendly and has seamlessly blended with our current trends in fashion and living. Unlike conventional cotton, organic cotton is grown without pesticides, herbicides, or any other chemical fertilizers. By restricting harmful chemical treatment in organic textile production, the final product does not contain hazardous allergenic, carcinogenic or toxic chemical residues that can cause allergies, skin rashes or respiratory problems.

But why organic cotton | We come in contact with this fibre every day. From our daily clothes to bedsheets to napkins, cotton is a ubiquitous choice. And organic cotton has numerous benefits, besides helping the environment |

Your level of comfort and ease changes with what you wrap around the body. Organic cotton is one of the most soft, breathable and luxurious clothing to touch the wearer’s skin, especially for babies.

If you have skin sensitivities, then organic fibre is the way to go as they are hypoallergenic and free of chemicals or pollutants. Organic materials are grown toxin-free, reducing the amount of toxic chemicals we ingest and release into the earth.

We know that organic cotton is a tad expensive than regular cotton, but one cannot deny the durability of organic clothing. They can last for more than 100 machine washes. And clothes that last longer are more economical, because they don’t have to be replaced as often.
