With the world being introduced to so many problems, we strive to find solutions as much as possible. And when the problem is related to our every day, finding a suitable solution is much needed for the better tomorrow. Keeping this in mind, we have come up top 3 clothing fabrics that are sustainable and suitable for clothing.
Organic Hemp
Prepared with a very high-yielding crop in the cannabis Sativa plant family, Hemp is a durable fiber used to make rope and sails.
Owing to its strength and rough-feel properties, Hemp is also used in making denim fabric with a blend of Hemp and certified organic cotton.
Other benefits of using Hemp are that this fabric is naturally pest-resistant, long-lasting, sustainable and renewable, and absorbent.
Organic cotton
It is a naturally cultivated cotton that does not use synthetic agricultural chemicals such as fertilizers or pesticides. With an attempt to work towards a sustainable world, this fabric came into the picture in the 1980s. Not only is it environment-friendly and better for human health too, but it is also very comfortable to wear.
Organic-Linen
Linen and cotton are a lot more similar in comfort and durability. Though Linen takes more time to grow than cotton, Linen is a more refined, stiff, and crisp fabric that is more versatile in terms of use.
You can find Linen in shirts, bedsheets, curtains, towels, etc.
Organic-Linen has the same properties as Linen – moisture-absorbent, versatile, durable, and more environment-friendly.
So, this World Sustainability Day, let us understand how we can save the world by finding more sustainable options.
