A site dedicated to the sustainable production, processing and consumption of organic cotton worldwide
The conventional cultivation of cotton leads to massive environmental and health problems. Around the world, more toxic insecticides are used on cotton than on any other crop. A sustainable alternative is the certified organic cultivation of the "white gold".The farmers have only a chance to convert their production into a controlled organic cultivation of cotton if there is sufficient demand for organic cotton. Although laborious in the beginning, the conversion is worthwhile. With the directory we aim to support this process. Furthermore, the database comprises stakeholder covering the various processes from the organic cotton field to the finished textiles.
Note: Entries are also allowed for suppliers who equip just a part of their collection with textiles of organic cotton.
Please help us to update our directory for organic cotton and organic cotton products. Has any address changed, a shop closed, a new shop opened or do you know a retailer not listed in the directory? Please contact cotton-connection@pan-germany.org
