The world continues to show an increasing commitment towards consumer products that are good for the health and help promote a sustainable future.
From paper and packaging to food and clothing, the consumer market is quickly moving away from products that are non-recyclable and contain chemicals and toxins, to products that are recyclable and renewable and made from natural sources.
People are more aware of what goes into the products the use, wear and eat. The clothing market in particular, which was once bombarded by synthetics, now has more of a focus on natural fibres, such as cotton, merino wool, possum and alpaca.
Organic cotton is particularly popular right around the world and for this reason there are a growing number of manufacturers and retailers selling it. Big numbers of parents are sourcing organic cotton clothes for their babies, being that this fibre is soft on their delicate skin and doesn’t cause skin irritations and reactions that other non-organic or natural fibre garments have.
Today you can buy cotton baby bibs, pants, sleepwear, beanies, socks and other clothing. They tend to be slightly more expensive than their synthetic rivals, however all parents see this price difference as inconsequential, considering the comfort, health and happiness that they bring to their young children.
It is however, very important that before buying these products that you check to see that they are organically-certified. There are manufacturers and retailers in the market place that falsely claim their products as something that they’re not.
Once you feel the difference between organic cotton and synthetic material, you’ll understand why more and more people are latching onto natural fibre clothing.
