About BORNSAGE
BORNSAGE collections are inspired by east-west fusion design with an emphasis on simplicity, durability, practicality and above all comfort for your baby. All garments and accessories adhere to the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) to ensure their organic status, from the harvesting of raw materials through to environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing. At BORNSAGE, we believe that organic clothing should not be a privilege, but that everyone should have the choice to cloth their babies in pure, natural luxury.
Why is BORNSAGE Organic?
The question should really be why not. A Baby’s skin is more porous than an adults, making it more susceptible to irritation by chemicals on conventional cotton. Organic cotton is a clean sustainable alternative to conventional cotton. Conventional cotton is grown and developed into fabric with toxic chemicals that are easily absorbed upon contact with Baby’s skin. These chemicals are not only harmful to our babies’, but also to our environment.
Quick facts on organic cotton:
- Cotton grown organically has denser fibres producing cloth that is beautifully soft, more durable and holds its shape better – even when washed repeatedly
- Organic cotton saves lives and is better for farming communities as no pesticides or hazardous chemicals are used which are believed to cause up to a million cases of poisoning a year and 20,000 deaths
- No formaldehyde is used for finishing which can cause rashes and asthma so it is better for those with allergies or chemical sensitivities
- No toxic chemicals are used in processing and manufacturing of organic cotton products
