Conventional cotton is one of the heaviest consumers of toxic chemicals, using approximately ¼ of the world’s insecticide which can cause considerable ecological pollution. Some of these chemicals remain present in cotton wool when it is produced and can leech out when used especially when used with skin care products.
You can protect yours and your children’s skin by using organic cotton wool and organic paper tissue products. The cotton wool products below are 100% Soil Association Certified Organic Cotton, are chlorine-free and are exceptionally soft. The cotton is grown on organic smallholdings in Tanzania. Ox-driven weeding and crop rotation have been reintroduced and cattle manure has replaced chemical fertilisers and herbicides. The Cotton Soft range of tissue products are also made from 100% organic cotton and are unbleached.
Organic cotton wool products are often recommended for people with sensitive skin or skin allergies, or for those who simply want to use more environmentally friendly lifestyle products.
