The EUCOTTON- initiative is spearheaded by the European Cotton Alliance(ECA), which comprises various cotton associations and federations based in Greece and Spain, the primary producers of European cotton. Its main office is situated in Larissa, Greece, with an additional branch in Seville, Spain.
EUCOTTON is exclusively produced and processed within EU nations. This local sourcing establishes a direct link between producers and consumers, cultivating trust and confidence in the garments we wear. Made from non-GMO seeds, EUCOTTON guarantees that our textiles are free from genetic modifications. This dedication to natural and traditional farming practices reflects our commitment to sustainability and ethical standards. Additionally, European cotton is recognized as a recyclable raw material, contributing to significantly lower emissions.
In contrast to synthetic fibers like polyester, the production of European cotton results in three times fewer greenhouse gas emissions. By opting for EUCOTTON, we play an active role in minimizing our carbon footprint and adopting a more environmentally friendly approach to fashion. Choosing high-quality, locally sourced cotton fibers not only reduces our carbon impact but also allows consumers to appreciate the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that EUCOTTON offers.
Let’s harness the vast potential of European cotton by supporting local industries, enhancing transparency, and fostering a sustainable future where quality, traceability, and environmental awareness flourish!
