Less water, less energy and zero toxic pesticides or chemicals. We only use organic cotton. Since 2015
Organic cotton is a type of cotton that is cultivated using natural seeds and grown without the aid of synthetic chemicals such as pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs). It is an environmentally-friendly alternative to conventional cotton farming methods, which rely heavily on the use of these synthetic inputs.
One of the key aspects of organic cotton cultivation is the use of natural seeds. These seeds are not genetically modified or engineered in any way. Instead, they are derived from traditional and heirloom varieties of cotton that have been naturally bred over generations. By using natural seeds, organic cotton farmers ensure that their crops are free from genetically modified traits and retain their natural genetic diversity.
Another important characteristic of organic cotton farming is the absence of synthetic chemicals. Conventional cotton farming relies heavily on the use of pesticides, insecticides, and herbicides to control pests, diseases, and weeds. These chemical inputs can have detrimental effects on the environment, as well as on the health of farmers and workers who come into contact with them. Organic cotton farming, on the other hand, adopts alternative practices to manage pests and weeds, such as crop rotation, biological pest control, and the use of natural pesticides derived from plant extracts.
By avoiding the use of synthetic chemicals, organic cotton cultivation promotes biodiversity and supports a healthier ecosystem. It reduces soil and water pollution, protects beneficial insects and pollinators, and minimizes the risk of chemical residues in the final cotton fiber. This makes organic cotton a more sustainable and eco-friendly choice compared to conventional cotton.
Additionally, organic cotton farming often embraces sustainable agricultural practices. These may include soil conservation techniques, water management strategies, and the use of organic fertilizers to maintain soil fertility and reduce the reliance on external inputs. These practices help preserve natural resources, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and mitigate the negative impact of cotton farming on climate change.
Organic cotton has gained popularity in the textile industry as an ethical and sustainable alternative to conventional cotton. It is used to produce a wide range of products, including clothing, bedding, towels, and personal care items. Choosing organic cotton products not only supports environmentally responsible farming practices but also contributes to a healthier and safer working environment for farmers and workers involved in the cotton supply chain.

We're committed to reducing our environmental impact, especially when it comes to our shipping process. That's why we have made a conscious decision to eliminate the use of poly bags or plastic altogether. Instead, we have implemented eco-friendly alternatives.

Vela bags offer various sustainability benefits compared to single-use poly bags; they are curbside recyclable, FSC®certified, and directly fund ocean research and conservation programs through our “Sea the Difference” initiative.
When it comes to mailing out our products, we have adopted 100% recycled Kraft paper mailers. These mailers are crafted from post-consumer waste, such as recycled paper fibers. By utilizing these mailers, we contribute to the circular economy by closing the loop on materials and reducing the demand for virgin resources.
Overall, by eliminating the use of poly bags and plastic, and incorporating Vela bags, garment packaging, and recycled Kraft paper mailers, we strive to make our shipping process as sustainable as possible.
We believe that every step counts in minimizing our environmental footprint, and we are proud to offer eco-friendly shipping options to our customers.
