Why choose organic?
When you choose to buy organic childrenswear, whether it's a babygrow, or a pair of organic pyjamas, you’re choosing to make a difference to your future, your children’s health and the future health of the planet we live on. Decades of poor agricultural practice; the use of dangerous pesticides and fertilisers, GM crops and general soil mismanagement, can be reversed but only if we promise the farmers that we will support them. Your choice is vital in helping companies like ours sustain them as they change the world. Choosing organic cotton is healthy for farmers, healthy for plants, healthy for animals and healthy for kids!
Pesticide free and eczema
Conventionally grown cotton is one of the most destructive crops grown in the world today, with two to nine applications of insecticides sprayed on a typical conventional cotton crop each season. Green Baby clothing is made of 100% organic cotton, certified by the IMO to be grown without the use of any pesticides which can irritate delicate skin and baby eczema.
You can be confident that there are no pesticide residues on the fabric you put next to your baby’s skin! This can help to relieve symptoms of eczema, and other skin allergies. 100% Organic cotton is also extremely soft to wear without the use of fabric conditioner.
Reduce, re-use and recycle
Over 80% of the environmental impact of clothing comes from the manufacturing process. The chemical processing, dyeing and packaging use more energy and cause more pollution than the disposal. At Green Baby we try to minimise the impact we make at manufacturing stage by using only environmentally friendly processes. Our dyes are free from harmful heavy metals, the card we use is recycled and our organic kidswear is delivered in reusable bags. We endeavour to only sea ship our clothing.
