The Organic Company Kitchen Cloth 30x35cm Evening Grey GOTS certified
This beautiful dishcloth from The Organic Company in 'evening grey' has a very good absorption capacity, super important with a dishcloth, right? The dishcloth does not have the standard look for a dishcloth, maybe it seems almost too good to use it for that. You don't have to hide this in your sink cabinet, but you can just leave it on your counter and use it. The cloth is very pleasant to use and also remains beautiful wash after wash.
The cloth is woven in an absorbent, quick-drying and unique pique weave and measure 30x35cm.
In Scandinavia, not everything always has a specific purpose, which makes many products so wonderfully multifunctional. Use the product where you find it beautiful, practical and necessary. The cloth can be seen, so it can be useful in many rooms and in many places. For example, use the cloth from The Organic Company to freshen up in the morning instead of a washcloth or use it in the kitchen to drain your milk frother after cleaning.
By purchasing this dishcloth you also make a responsible choice, because it is made of 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton. This certification guarantees that the entire process from farming to the end product is done responsibly.
The Organic Company
In The Organic company they only work with organic cotton, because it makes a difference. Their mission is: buy less and buy better. This Danish company wants to make a difference and encourage people to contribute to a better world. That's why honesty, transparency and their ambitious desire to make this difference is their rock-solid foundation for 'The Organic Company', founded in 2007 by Joy Vasilyev.
GOTS certified – 100% organic cotton
The Organic Company's products are made of 100% organic cotton and since 2010 all products are made of 100% GOTS certified organic cotton.
Organic cotton is a natural, renewable and biodegradable fiber. It benefits cotton producers and the environment in developing countries by avoiding the harmful effects of toxic pesticides, and lower production costs improve social conditions. The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the world's leading textile processing standard for organic fibres, including environmental and social criteria, supported by independent certification of the entire textile supply chain.
The aim of the standard is to define globally recognized requirements that guarantee the organic status of textiles, from harvesting the raw materials, through environmentally and socially responsible production, to labeling to provide a credible guarantee to the end consumer.
Normally organic applies to agriculture, but in GOTS it is much more than just agriculture. It's the whole process; farming, harvesting, cleaning, processing, weaving/knitting, dyeing and sewing. The two-pronged GOTS approach covers both environmental and social issues, which apply to the entire supply chain.
Less and Better
The Organic company therefore does not design for the sake of design, but where there is demand for it. As a result, they do not have a mega collection of 1000 articles, but around 100 products. All new products must solve a problem, fulfill a need or improve a category.
The Organic Company operates a "less and better" strategy, which includes good quality and good functionality without fast fashion or seasonal colors, with a focus on promoting alternatives to disposable items. They would like to see this strategy reflected in many more mainstream companies. We must realize that in general many disposable products contain the same amount of raw material as reusable products, making the shift (from disposable to reusable) an essential step towards much better resource management.
