It is better for the planet and better for you.\u003cbr\u003eYes, the farming and the process requires more knowledge, is more complicated and is more\u003cbr\u003eexpensive compared to the conventional production of cotton. However, when you learn the difference\u003cbr\u003ebetween organic and non-organic we are sure you agree it is worth the extra hassle.\u003cbr\u003eConventional cotton is made using harmful chemicals that pollute the earth. In fact, cotton is one\u003cbr\u003eof the most polluting crops to farm. The growing of conventional cotton uses roughly 7% of the\u003cbr\u003eworld’s pesticides and 16% – yes – 16%! of the world’s insecticides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePros:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e71% less water is used in the production compared to conventional cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo toxic chemicals used to grow the cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe cotton farmers aren’t exposed to any kind of chemicals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is better for the planet, and for you!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eCons:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe farming and the process requires more knowledge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is more complicated to produce compared to conventional cotton production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is more expensive compared to the conventional production of cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt still needs a lot of water to grow the cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eLyocell\/Tencell\u003cbr\u003eLyocell is a light and biodegradable material. Its fibers are stronger than other similar fibers, which means you are getting a shirt which lasts longer and looks better for a longer period of time. Lyocell is also known by the name Tencel and is made from Eucalyptus trees. This is a fast-growing plant, which does not require tons of water or pesticides to grow. After harvesting the Eucalyptus tree, the tree is soaked in a solution called amine oxide, which is non-toxic. The amine oxide extracts the raw cellulose, so it can be made into fibers which can be spun into yarn, and finally fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePros:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLyocell is very environmentally friendly, because it is produced in a closed loop, so all chemicals used are recycled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is a strong material, quick drying and has a good absorbency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe absorbency is 50% better than cotton, and because of the incredibly good absorbency, the material is anti-bacterial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe fabric feels very light and soft, and doesn’t absorb sweat odor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% biodegradable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd fun fact – it is made from trees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eCons:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIt is an expensive material\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cimg onerror=\"this.onerror=null; this.src='data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7'\" alt=\"\" style=\"width: 1px !important; height: 1px !important;\" src=\"https:\/\/micros.create2stay.com\/api\/frontdoor\/track?si=6a2ab2097d8abd5ec7ba6509\"\u003e","brand":"ELSK","offers":[{"title":"NAVY \/ XL","offer_id":53768832254295,"sku":"C2S_3930","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0527\/3193\/6935\/files\/ad284155-636a-4475-851a-5077244ea2de.png?v=1781270263","url":"https:\/\/elsk.com\/en-eu\/products\/re-elsk-5332-elsk%c2%ae-tvaers-women-s-sweatshirt-navy-6","provider":"ELSK®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
