Organic cotton is grown without insecticides or pesticides or the use of genetically modified seeds – in other words its guaranteed 100% natural and chemical-free. It’s typically rotated with other crops, which helps to replenish the soil, naturally eliminate pests and reduce farmers' dependency on a single crop. Certified organic cotton also bans the addition of chemicals as the fibre is turned into cloth.
