At Wayuco, we take the environment and the way our garments are processed very seriously. This is why our t-shirts are made with Certified Organic Cotton.
The Organic Cotton with which our t-shirts are made is grown and processed with the utmost respect for the environment and the local suppliers who process it. Cotton is grown without resorting to chemical insecticides, fertilizers or pesticides, with methods that do not harm people, animals and the environment. This prevents toxic or dangerous substances from being incorporated into the soil, rivers or adjacent lakes, ensuring a healthy environment for farmers and superior quality cotton.
Becouse things can be done in so many ways, but only a few make a difference.
