GOTS-certified

All cotton fabrics in our lampshades are organic GOTS-certified (Global Organic Textile Standard). This means that the entire manufacturing process, from cotton cultivation to the sale of the finished fabric, is controlled and fair.

According to GOTS, the cotton must not be artificially fertilized, and no chemicals are permitted in either cultivation or processing. All dyes used must be approved, and no chlorine bleaching is allowed. When the fabrics are packed and shipped, no packaging containing PVC plastics may be used. Furthermore, GOTS sets requirements for working conditions, wages, and social standards for those who work in the production of the fabrics.
