Cotton as an Eco-Friendly Fabric

Updated: Sep 14, 2021


There are a lot of organic products that have recently become popular. One of them is a product made from cotton. What actually makes the product popular? Come on, Wewadahan friends, let's discuss together the reasons why this product made of cotton fabric can be popular.


In our daily life, we cannot be separated from cloth. Clothing is a basic need for our daily lives, so we are familiar with various types of fabrics. Then why cotton fabrics are the most popular? One of the reasons is that cotton is an organic material that is easily biodegradable, because in the manufacturing process it does not require much pesticide and water. Therefore, many people are switching from synthetic fabrics to cotton fabrics. Apart from organic cotton, there are various other organic products on the market, including organic wool and organic hemp.


Although the price offered is slightly higher, there are many reasons why we should choose and use products made from organic cotton. In addition to being comfortable and good for health, of course we also participate in the eco-friendly movement which is currently being widely promoted. How can using organic cotton fabrics be included in the eco-friendly movement? Here's the explanation:


1. Minimize waste results


Fabric production has left a lot of waste, both waste that comes from the dyeing process which produces chemical waste, as well as the accumulation of used fabrics in the trash. If we let it, of course it can damage our earth. If we use organic cotton, the decomposition process will be faster.


2. Easier recycling process


Organic cotton fabric, in its manufacture, uses organic fibers that are easily decomposed so that the recycling and composting process becomes easier. It is different with synthetic fabrics which take a long time to decompose.


3. Minimizing microplastics


Microplastics are often one of the types of waste that pollute the environment, both land and marine environments. To prevent that, we must use organic products such as cotton cloth.


Organic cotton fabrics have now also become a trend among consumers, even some big and well-known brands have also followed this trend by becoming one of the largest organic cotton buyers in the world. With this, it is hoped that the world fashion industry will also participate in producing environmentally friendly cotton fabrics so that we can together protect the earth.

Come on, our Wewadahan friends, start loving the earth by starting the steps to reduce the use of plastic and switch to cloth bags. Friends can find it at www.wewadahan.com, you know!
