GreatFull clothing
In a world that consumes more and faster, often with assembly line production and lower quality garments, we have chosen to prioritise the quality of our products and their lifespan, while guaranteeing the smallest possible ecological footprint and greater consideration for the work done by the people who make them for us.
The coton
The coton used in our garments is organic and GOTS certified, which means it has been developed with the highest ecological and environmental considerations in mind. Unlike conventional coton which uses a lot of water, pesticides and chemical fertilisers, the organic coton we use saves up to 75% of blue gold! Waouh ! As well as the fact that our clothes are well-cut and ultra-comfortable, you’re guaranteed to be wearing ethical, sustainable pieces. A healthy mind in healthy clothes! 😉
GOTS ( Global Organic Textile Standard) is a label that certifies not only dignified working conditions, but also respect for the environment and products that do not harm the health of those who make and wear them.
Environmental requirements
GOTS -certified garments are guaranteed to be free of chemicals and toxic substances that are harmful to the environment, the workforce and yourself. ou won’t find any of these extremely polluting products (toxic heavy metals, formaldehyde, aromatic solvents, functional nanoparticles, plastisol, phthalates, PVC, chlorine bleaching agents) that can end up in water and soil.
SOCIAL REQUIREMENTS
The GOTS label ensures compliance with the social criteria laid down by the ILO (International Labour Organisation). These include the elimination of forced labour, freedom of association, the abolition of child labour, discrimination and brutal and inhumane treatment, adequate wages and decent working hours.
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
Above all, a GOTS garment must be able to withstand rubbing, perspiration, washing and shrinkage.
PACKAGING RECYCLING
All packaging, including paper, cardboard and labels, must be recyclable or FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) or PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes) certified
THE ETHICAL CHAIN
CARE
BY FOLLOWING THESE CARE TIPS, YOU CAN EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR GREATFULL CLOTHES, WHILE PRESERVING THEIR ECOLOGICAL QUALITY.
WASHING
It is best to machine wash garments in lukewarm or cold water, using a mild, environmentally-friendly detergent and turning the garment inside out.
DRYING
To preserve the quality of the organic cotton and the dye, we recommend that you dry your clothes in the open air, away from the sun.
IRONING
If possible, iron garments at a low temperature and inside out to preserve the prints of delicate designs. Otherwise, use a protective cloth to prevent damage.
SPOTS
If you find stains or other soiling, wash them off as quickly as possible to prevent them from sticking. It’s best to use natural, non-toxic stain removers rather than harsh chemicals.
STORAGE
We recommend a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading. Avoid placing them near sources of excessive heat or humidity.
