MATERIALS
EL MATERIAL CON EL QUE ELABORAMOS NUESTRAS PRENDAS LO ES TODO, ES UNA DE LAS PARTES MÁS IMPORTANTES DEL PROYECTO. TODOS LOS MATERIALES QUE USAMOS PARA PRODUCIR NUESTRAS PRENDAS SON SELECCIONADOS CON EL OBJETIVO DE CUMPLIR CON TRES CRITERIOS: CALIDAD, DURABILIDAD Y UN MENOR IMPACTO.
The material we use to make our garments is everything; it's one of the most important parts of the project. All the materials we use to produce our garments are selected with the goal of meeting three criteria: quality, durability, and minimal impact.
ORGANIC COTTON
Our GOTS certified organic cotton is a GMO-free natural fiber that stands out for its lower water consumption than conventional cotton. In its cultivation, chemical products such as fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides are not used , which are very harmful to farmers, and contaminate both the soil and groundwater.
This type of cultivation favors small farmers over large cotton latifundia, thus promoting a more sustainable economy. In addition, organic agriculture respects the cycles of the earth, thus preserving its use for future generations.
Conventional cotton farming accounts for 3% of the world's cotton crop. 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, it weighs only 60 g and takes up much less space than a box, so we reduce the emissions derived from its transport .
Each one of them has been hand-stamped by us with a biosoluble ink seal that prevents it from contaminating the water in its recycling.
