MATERIALS

THE MATERIAL WE USE TO MAKE OUR GARMENTS IS EVERYTHING, IT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PARTS OF THE PROJECT. ALL THE MATERIALS WE USE TO PRODUCE OUR GARMENTS ARE SELECTED WITH THE AIM OF MEETING THREE CRITERIA: QUALITY, DURABILITY AND A LESS IMPACT.

ORGANIC COTTON

Our GOTS-certified cotton is a natural, GMO-free fibre that consumes less water than conventional cotton. In its cultivation, no chemicals such as fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides are used, which are very harmful to farmers, and pollute both soil and groundwater.

This type of cultivation favours small farmers over large cotton estates, thus promoting a more sustainable economy. In addition, organic agriculture respects the cycles of the land, thus preserving its use for future generations.

THE CONVENTIONAL COTTON CULTIVATION ACCOUNTS FOR 3% OF THE WORLD'S CROPS. HOWEVER, IT USES 10% OF THE WORLD'S PESTICIDES AND 25% OF THE WORLD'S INSECTICIDES.

PACKAGING

When selecting the packaging that best suits us we have decided to use an FSC paper envelope, this weighs only 60 grams and takes up much less space than a box, so we reduce emissions from transport.

Each one of them has been hand stamped by us with a biosoluble ink stamp that avoids contaminating the water in its recycling.
