GOTS stands for Global Organic Textile Standard and means that the cotton used in the product is organic. Organic cotton is grown without added chemicals, ie no chemical fertilisers or pesticides. The chemicals used in GOTS are of the milder kind but still of such a high quality that the finished product is colour fast and also recyclable. The working conditions at factories must be good and follow a certain standard when it comes to health and safety, equality, organisational structures and general working conditions.
Himla is GOTS certified as a company. Hope & Dreamtime bedlinen together with Maxime hand towels are produced in GOTS certified organic cotton. In the Autumn Winter 2020, all of Himla’s cotton products, including the signature range of bedlinen Soul, will be produced using GOTS certified organic cotton.
