SwissCotton Organic is directed to a group of buyers who are environmental conscious, but at the same time, demand a quality product. The organic cotton we use meets the strict EC-rules for organic agriculture. From the cotton field to the spinning mill, the production process is inspected and certified by Skal- International, a subsidiary of Control Union World Group. Their EKO label stands for organic agriculture where agro-chemicals are not applied. Therefore, harmful residues on the finished product are impossible. The silky appearance and the soft hand of the organic Supima®-Cotton we use, meets our and your highest quality requirements. By a close collaboration and long term contracts with selected farmers, we safeguard continuity in organic cotton cultivation and your continuous supply with SwissCotton Organic.
Together with five leading suppliers, Bühler has formed the marketing-platform
bioRe®, which exemplifies the highest standards in ecology and fair trade. bioRe® is the supplier for raw material, yarns and fabric from certified wool or cotton.
