Why We Choose GOTS® Certified Organic Cotton
Because What Touches Your Child's Skin Matters
When you're choosing clothing for your child, softness is only part of the story.
What the fabric is made from, how it's grown, and how it's processed all matter too—especially for children with sensitive skin.
That's why we carefully select GOTS® (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified organic cotton.
It's one of the world's most trusted certifications for organic textiles, giving parents confidence that every garment has been independently assessed from the cotton field through to the finished product.
Organic From Seed to Seam
GOTS certification follows every stage of a garment's journey.
From organically grown cotton through to spinning, dyeing, sewing and finishing, every step must meet strict environmental and social standards.
That means:
- Organic cotton grown without GMOs or synthetic pesticides
- Responsible manufacturing processes
- Independent certification throughout the supply chain
- Complete traceability from fibre to finished garment
It's one of the most comprehensive textile certifications in the world—and one we're proud to use.
Gentle on Sensitive Skin
Children's skin is naturally more delicate.
That's why GOTS places strict limits on the chemicals that can be used during manufacturing.
Unlike many conventional textiles, GOTS-certified cotton cannot be processed using harmful bleaches, toxic dyes or harsh finishing treatments.
The result is beautifully soft organic cotton that's designed to feel as gentle as it looks.
Better for People Too
Looking after children shouldn't come at the expense of the people who make their clothing.
GOTS certification also requires factories to meet rigorous social standards, including:
- Safe working conditions
- No child or forced labour
- Fair treatment of workers
- Independent social audits
It's a standard that values people just as much as products.
Independently Certified. Not Just Claimed.
Anyone can describe clothing as "natural" or "organic."
GOTS certification goes much further.
Independent third-party auditors verify every stage of production to ensure the certification continues to meet global standards.
That means when we say our organic cotton is GOTS certified, it's backed by evidence—not marketing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between GOTS® and OEKO-TEX®?
Both are internationally recognised certifications, but they focus on different things.
GOTS® certifies the entire production journey of organic cotton—from farming through to manufacturing—covering environmental practices, chemical restrictions and ethical working conditions.
OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 focuses on the safety of the finished product. Every component of the garment—including fabric, thread, dyes, trims and labels—is independently tested to ensure it's free from harmful substances.
Together, they provide parents with even greater confidence that our clothing has been chosen with children's wellbeing in mind.
Why does GOTS matter for children's clothing?
Children spend hours every day in their clothing.
They sleep in it, play in it, and babies often chew on sleeves and collars.
Choosing organic cotton that's manufactured under strict chemical standards gives parents added confidence that the fabric against their child's skin has been produced with exceptional care.
It's simply another way we help create clothing that's soft, comfortable and thoughtfully made.
Is GOTS good for the environment too?
Yes.
GOTS certification includes strict environmental requirements throughout manufacturing, including responsible water management, reduced chemical use and sustainable production practices.
Combined with rigorous social standards, it helps ensure the clothing you choose is better for both families and the people who make it.
