Collaborating with cotton growers, our commitment to organic conversion begins with seed selection. This is our ORGANIC FIELD™.
Every process involved in producing ORGANIC FIELD cotton is controlled by STYLEM, from seed selection through to cotton cultivation and yarn production, to ensure its traceability.
Converting farms to organic production takes time and effort, and it also imposes a burden on farmers because yields are likely to fall in the short term. With this in mind, STYLEM has entered into a partnership agreement with Indian company NSL, to provide support by working together with farmers from the first in-conversion year (IC1) onwards. We are also working to improve the working environment and the natural environment by safeguarding workers’ health and protecting the soil from harmful chemical substances.
By creating an environment that facilitates the conversion to organic cultivation, we are contributing toward job creation and local community development. We believe that, by promoting ORGANIC FIELD to build a sustainable supply chain, we can create a brighter future for everyone.
