Recycled Wastewater Produced
While most cotton yarns are produced using 10,000-20,000 litres of fresh water, Organicon, like all of Scheepjes’ 100% Cotton yarns and several cotton blends, is produced using 95% recycled wastewater. Once the remaining 5% is treated with natural substances, it is classed as biodegradable and can be safely returned to the local environment. For more information visit: bit.ly/wastewatercreated
