Acting consistently is the only way to bring about lasting change
An amplitude of sustainability benefits - a glossary of our icons
Pure Organic Cotton
Absolutely no chemical pesticides, artificial fertilisers or genetic modification are used in the organic cultivation of cotton. There are therefore no negative impacts on soils and bodies of water or flora and fauna, biodiversity is promoted. Healthier cultivation areas store moisture much more effectively, which significantly reduces water consumption. The fibres of the organic cotton have longer staples. This makes the resulting fabric longer-lasting and more durable. In addition, regional value creation means that the development of local economic communities is strengthened. In short, organic cotton is better for the land, agricultural workers and your well-being.

Made With 40% Less Water
A great deal of water is required for growing cotton – often in arid regions. Organic cotton is a resource-friendly alternative. Genetically modified plants requiring a large amount of water are thus banned. Organic cultivation takes place on a thicker humus layer, which is naturally better able to store moisture. In contrast, conventional irrigation methods lead to salination and erosion of the soil. Organic cultivation also protects against this with efficient drip irrigation. Overall, these effects reduce water consumption by 40%.

100% Climate Neutral Product
People around the world now agree that we urgently need to counteract human-induced climate change. This is why we have had the greenhouse gas emissions caused by our company’s activities measured and offset by purchasing a total of 19,875 climate protection certificates for 2020 and 2021. With these certificates, we are supporting a UN hydroelectric power project in Uganda. Greenhouse gases are distributed evenly in the atmosphere. As a result, it was set down in the Kyoto Protocol, which is binding under international law, to prevent emissions wherever the costs are most economical. Projects in emerging and developing countries also contribute towards improving the economic, social and ecological situation and help to achieve the United Nations Sustainability Goals. We have received the awards “climate-neutral company” and “climate-neutral products” for the offsetting of our greenhouse gases.

Wonderful Natural Fibre Characteristics
Nature is unparalleled in its ability to produce fibres with impressive properties. Natural fibres are, among other things, breathable, robust, water- and dirt-repellent, regulate heat and moisture, and much more. Last but not least, they are absolutely sustainable as they grow back again and biodegrade at the end of their life cycle. Good reasons to wear natural fibres – just as humans have done for thousands of years.

MADE IN GREEN by OEKO-TEX®
Coolmax® Ecomade is made from 100% recycled resources and thus protects the environment. The Coolmax® system is known for its effective moisture management with optimum breathability. The moisture is quickly transported to the outside, where it can evaporate. This evaporative effect allows the fabric to dry very quickly. It thus stays cool and is also soft, lightweight and comfortable.
