Why have an organic product?
Organic systems work in harmony with nature, keeping harmful chemicals out of our land, water and air. This helps create a healthy environment rich in wildlife, woodlands and nutrients. Organic standards place great emphasis on building and maintaining healthy soil, nutritious crops and animal welfare. By buying an organic textile you are supporting communities building a healthy and sustainable economy and environment.
