Organic cotton improves the environment.  This ensures that no harmful chemicals touch your skin.  Exposure to these chemicals can cause symptoms that range from nausea to psychological disturbances.

With the increase in environmental responsibility, consumers recognize their role in motivating companies to change their practices.  Companies are providing consumers with the transparency of fabric choices and sourcing options and fair labor practices, water usage, energy savings and emissions footprints.

The following companies include sustainability in their company missions and practices.
