This beautiful product is made from certified GOTS organic cotton which is better for you, the environment and our farming communities. Here’s the low down. Organic cotton farms are more sustainable because they are typically smaller and rain-watered rather than irrigated which means they use less water and energy. Importantly, organic cotton doesn't use pesticides or other chemicals which fundamentally harm the soil, wildlife, food supply chains and waterways. And if that’s not enough, avoiding these chemicals means it's gentler on your skin. Even our packaging has been considered, including reusable organic cotton bags, biodegradable cornstarch bags and recycled cardboard boxes. We're proudly carbon neutral, off-setting the carbon footprint from our suppliers right through to the freight that delivers this product to your door.
