Organic Cotton

Organic relationship we build with all life.

We want to deliver the safest towels in the world.
Organic 120 was born in 1999 out of this desire.
Since then, we have been delivering products woven with organic cotton.

So, what is the difference between regular cotton and organic cotton?
At IKEUCHI ORGANIC, we have the following three conditions.

1. First, the cotton must be organically grown without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers for at least three years.
   The product is not considered organic until the pesticide residue in the soil of the field has been eliminated within three years.

2. Second, the seeds must not be genetically modified.
   Genetically modified seeds are strictly eliminated from the production line so that human hands can harvest large quantities of homogeneous cotton more quickly and efficiently.

3. Third, it is fair trade.
   The farmers who produce the cotton must be under safe and hygienic working conditions, be paid a fair living wage, and continue to purchase the cotton at a fair and stable price.

Originally, organic cotton accounted for only 1% of the world's cotton production.
The reason for this is simple: organic cotton production is very labor intensive.
It is different from increasing production lines by machines in factories.

We have to be honest with all the natural environment and people we interact with.
Only when all environments are prepared in a pure manner, can we truly enjoy a comfortable texture.
That is our concept of organic cotton.
