Are you confused by the term “organic”? We are, so we did a little research on the topic:
According to our good friends at Bella, in order to determine if a garment is organic you have to go back to the way the raw materials are produced. Today, many products are made with chemical fertilizers, genetic modification, or added preservatives. Organic farmers use a different approach: they focus on growing and farming in a natural, environment-friendly surrounding. They do not add chemicals, hormones or preservatives to their products.
Textiles that are certified organic are made from raw organic materials that originate from an organic cultivation process where 100% certified organic natural fibers come from inspected, toxic free organic farming in compliance with regulations for organic production.
