By organic or biological cotton we mean cotton, which derives from non-genetically modified plants, and which is grown without the use of synthetic chemicals such as fertilizers or pesticides, but only natural products. Its production also promotes and enhances biodiversity and biological cycles in cotton plantations which must meet the needs imposed by the GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard).

The objective of the GOTS is to establish at an international level the requirements that fabrics must have to obtain the "organic" status. This concerns both the production, harvesting and processing processes. In general we can state that the production of organic cotton involves: the use of fertilizers of animal and vegetable origin; the elimination of parasites using antagonistic insects; the removal of weeds with tractors, hoes or by hand; the exclusive use of seeds resulting from at least four germinations in the absence of chemical treatments.

The philosophy behind this product is to work with nature and not against it, to live better.

INFORMATION ON THE MANUFACTURER

The CusciniBio company had its first roots in Forlì in 1980 where, in the home garage, they began to work the materials transforming them into handcrafted cushions and mattresses. The most used materials were wool and cotton which were worked by hand to preserve their integrity and properties and combined with natural cotton and linen fabrics.

Today, as then, CusciniBio is a family-run company that selects organic materials in harmony with nature to offer healthy rest that regenerates body and spirit.

All products, pillows, mattresses, futons, quilts, sheets, are GMO free, free of chemical pesticides and artificial fertilizers out of respect for humans, animals, earth and aquifers.

In the era of globalization, choosing a local or Italian product gives artisans the opportunity to continue the tradition of the trade.

The CusciniBio company has obtained the international GOTS – Global Organic Textile Standard certification since 2013 . Their products labeled as "Organic" have a natural fiber content from organic farming of more than 95% , do not contain and do not release dangerous substances such as heavy metals or carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic substances.

In the manufacturing of these GOTS certified organic textile products, practices, techniques and/or technologies have been adopted that allow a reduction in chemicals, water and energy, while respecting workers' rights along the entire production chain.
