What is Cotton anyway?

The cotton plant belongs to the mallow genus. Cotton is the most important natural fiber in the world and the plant has a long history. Finds in Mexico, China and India indicate that cotton was used as clothing over 6000 years ago. Later, the Indians develop the first ginning processes, taking cotton production to a new level. Through Arab traders, the precious "cotton" reaches Europe, where the plant is considered a rarity until the 16th century.

In the course of the industrial revolution, new processes and machines such as the mechanical loom and the cotton gin are invented in England. These innovations are decisive for the worldwide boom of the "white gold".

Light and shadow in cotton production

Today, cotton is produced in over 65 countries. China and India are considered the market leaders, with over 5 million tons of cotton produced annually in these countries. With all the advantages that cotton brings, we must not neglect the other side of the coin. Exploitation in the cotton fields is still a major global problem. In addition, conventional cultivation uses a great deal of water. Pesticides and chemicals take a toll on the cultivation area and the health of the workers, often in the long term.

To better protect people and nature in cotton production, independent certifiers such as GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) and OCS (Organic Content Standard) award their seals. Furthermore, Fairtrade ("just trade") describes the compliance with certain trade conventions in the trade exchange between buyers and producers. To be awarded the seal, products must meet predefined requirements that are checked at regular intervals.
