World Cotton Day - October 7!

Did you know that cotton has its own holiday? And yet, we celebrate it every day when we enjoy its exceptional properties in our mattress fabrics and bed linens! Even more so when we talk about the premium selection of organic cotton! The diversity of cotton Cotton is famous for its versatility, making it an integral part of various fields. It is a natural fabric derived from the fluffy fibers of the cotton seed, which is mainly composed of cellulose. Cotton's versatility comes from its ability to be woven, knitted, or blended with other fibers, making it a preferred choice in textiles. When used in mattresses, cotton can take many forms, such as batting, cover fabrics, or even mixed with other materials such as afrolatex or memory foam. Differences between cotton and organic cotton But what are the differences between regular cotton and organic cotton? These are two different variants of the same plant, with significant differences in origin, cultivation and use, such as:

• Cultivation and processing: Conventional cotton is grown using chemical fertilizers and pesticides to increase production and protect against disease and pests. In contrast, organic cotton is grown without the use of synthetic chemical fertilizers or pesticides, following the principles of organic farming.
• Environmental impact : The cultivation of conventional cotton has a significant negative impact on the environment, such as soil and water pollution from the use of chemicals. In contrast, growing organic cotton helps maintain soil health and reduce environmental pollution, making it a more sustainable option.
• Health and safety : Growing conventional cotton may use chemicals that leave residues on the fiber, which can affect health. On the other hand, organic cotton is safer for health as it does not contain chemical residues.
