and stronger communities.
Organic:

The wool in these pillows is 100% organic, certified to OEKO-TEX 100 standards. It comes from the isel of Texel, in the Netherlands.
The organic cotton cover for this pillow has been certified by Europe's oldest and most prestigious certification agency, KRAV of Sweden.
The organic cotton used in Grassroots' bedding products is handpicked in the Canete and Chincha Valleys in the Peruvian Andes. The land is farmed by small, local farmers in a co-op. It is grown organically without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides or defoliants. The area has always been organic due to the high cost and lack of availability of chemical inputs. Handpicking ensures that it is the cleanest, purest, most resilient cotton fiber available, allowing the cotton seeds to stay with plant and not contaminate the picked cotton.
Ethically Made: Adheres to one or more commonly held fair trade principles (though not certified): fair wages, safe and healthy conditions, equal employment opportunities and financial and technical assistance to producers. This product also uses ethically made wool.
KRAV of Sweden has certified the cotton for this pillow. Their stamp of approval is a guarantee that social rights are observed in the product of cotton, which takes place in the Peruvian Andes.. The co-op farms from which the cotton comes is fair trade (though not third party certified), with the small farmers enjoying increased financial security.
For wool production, sheep spend the winter in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled barn with clean floors, fresh, dry bedding, and a non-rationed food supply. After shearing, the wool is washed with hot water and vegetable-based soap. This chemical-free process allows it to retain 4-6% of its natural lanolin oil, a natural dust-mite repellant.
Natural: Made
with non-toxic ingredients safe for your health and for the
environment. An effective and sensible choice.
Healthy Home: Your
path to a healthy home environment, from the way you clean, to the air
you breathe and the water you drink.
