Low Impact Farming
We have specifically chosen to work in regions where organic cotton is planted and harvested by
hand, without mechanization, and because organic farming does not use petroleum based chemical fertilizer, pesticide or herbicide, it is less reliant on fossil fuels.
Carbon Neutral
EarthPositive apparel is made in carbon neutral manufacturing facilities in India, from ‘low impact’ organic cotton, and is distributed through carbon neutral warehouses and offices in London that
use only renewable green electricity.
Environmentally Friendly
EarthPositive apparel is certified by the Oeko-Tex 100 Standard, Class I. The Oeko-Tex 100 Standard
is a guarantee of the safety of textiles and dyestuffs to human health. It also means we take more
care in adopting environmentally friendly production methods throughout the manufacturing of EarthPositive apparel.
