Sustainable textiles - 100 % Fairtrade and organic certified - since 1998
Our roots lie in supporting the humble cotton farmers; therefore, it was natural for us to choose Fair Trade and become an active supporter of the Fairtrade International system, which focuses on farmers in countries like India who depend on cotton for their livelihood.
With Fairtrade we share common values and thoughts that are an ethical guide for us.
We started with the certification against the Fairtrade Cotton Standard and decided to become a pilot partner of the latest and groundbreaking standard in 2016: Fairtrade Textile Standard. In November 2019, we became the first textile producer worldwide, which received this certification.
Purecotz processes organic cotton and believes strongly in the impact this has on the planet and people.
That‘s not enough. Thus, we find the combination of Fairtrade and organic cotton the best, because the farmers benefit twice.
We encourage you to jump on the Fairtrade bandwagon and rely on organic and Fairtrade in purchasing so that you can share the pride and dignity of the people involved in this sustainable supply chain.
Purecotz Eco Lifestyles Pvt. Ltd. is certified against the Fairtrade Textile Standard, which aims to maintain safe working environments and protect the rights and freedoms of the people in textiles manufacturing.
