Two Sisters Ecotextiles wants you to know why and how to “green” your fabric choices. The issues are profound.

First, the why. The textiles industry is a gigantic industry that is gigantically polluting

It uses gargantuan amounts of 3 things: water, chemicals and energy.

It is the number one industrial polluter of water in the world.

Its product is not safe to use. Fabric is, by weight, 25% chemicals, most of them with either an unsavory or an unknown toxicity profile. Outgassing is NOT the only problem with chemicals in fabric. They are residual in fabric and we continue to have contact with many of them through out gassing, skin absorption, and abrading micro particles which we breathe in or ingest.

In terms of embodied energy, a natural fiber fabric, and preferably an organic fiber, and ideally, a GOTS certified fabric is the best carbon footprint choice by leagues.

Synthetic fiber fabrics, including recycled polyester, are horrible carbon footprint choices.

Two Sisters Ecotextiles sells fabrics that solve the toxicity, water pollution, and the carbon footprint problems with fabric.

Two Sisters Ecotextiles sold the first GOTS certified fabrics in the US- Global Organic Textile Standard – in 2008.

All of us live intimately with fabrics. Fabrics are all around us. Your fabric choices are incredibly important. You can have a dramatic positive impact on greening our world and keeping your family optimally healthful through your fabric choices. You can have a profound impact on the environment – toxicological pollution, carbon footprint, social justice – through your textile choices

Help leave our children a vibrant, diverse world.

Everyone is looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact, their carbon footprint, their own health. Our fabrics help you do this. The issues are profound. Demand GOTS (Oeko-Tex Made In Green is an OK second.). Buy your fabric from Two Sisters Ecotextiles
