Materials & certifications

Materials

Cotton

A soft, breathable, absorbent, and versatile natural fiber grown from the fluffy bolls of cotton plants.

Good to know: Conventional cotton is one of the world's dirtiest crops as cultivation heavily relies on pesticides, herbicides (glyphosate), and fertilizers, raising concerns about environmental pollution, soil health, and potential health risks for farmers and consumers. This is why some brands and consumers push for "100% organic cotton." Organic cotton skips the harsh chemicals, making it a more eco-friendly and healthier choice.

Natural Latex

A biodegradable, elastic material sourced from the sap of the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis), valued for its durability and comfort. It is processed through methods that maintain its natural composition without synthetic additives or harsh chemicals.

Uses: Favored in products requiring flexibility and resilience, such as mattresses, furniture, pillows, and various apparel components.

Good to know: "100% Natural Latex" assures a product made solely from harvested rubber tree sap, without synthetic materials. Using generally safe chemicals like sulfur and zinc oxide, the vulcanization process doesn't synthetically alter the latex but stabilizes its inherent qualities.

Wool

Wool is a natural protein fiber obtained from the fleece of sheep and other animals, including alpacas, goats (such as cashmere and mohair goats), and rabbits (like angora). It's known for its durability, insulation properties, and ability to absorb moisture without feeling wet.

Certifications

GOTS
Textiles with this certification must contain at least 70% organic content and meet comprehensive ecological and social criteria. Notably, GOTS encompasses the entire supply chain, from the sourcing of fibers to the final stages of processing, manufacturing, and distribution. The label can be granted to entire brands or individual fabric suppliers and manufacturers.
OEKO-TEX
OEKO-TEX certification promises that every product component has been tested for harmful substances. The only downside is that OEKO-TEX does not require organic components and only tests the final product for chemicals, pesticides, and dyes.
