The decision: Expensive designer clothes or, on the basis of the average rather short gestation period, but rather cheaper mass-produced? Organic and sustainable or not yet conventionally enough? Practically the wardrobe for the next generation in any case should be and of course not carry pollutants. The reality is: clothing for the little ones is sewn in countries such as China, Viet Nam, Bangladesh and Colombia. The fact is also that the conditions for the production of cotton, nor in the sewing factories are better than at comparable clothing for adults.

The fibers made from organic cotton produced without agricultural poisons and natural fibre or coloured green.

Furthermore, the Association calls for mandatory standards for cotton, in particular cotton, which should be checked regularly by an independent party.
