Organic Cotton (GMO Screening) Testing

Organic cotton refers to the cotton that is grown from Non-GMO Seeds with the natural farming practices. Compared to conventionally grown cotton, the cultivation of organic cotton requires the absence of GMO.

GOTS is the most recognised standard, Organic cotton promotes and enhances biodiversity and biological cycles and so is beneficial to human health & environment.
