Non-toxic clothing
Certified organic denim, toxic-free clothing & apparel
At organsk®, our commitment to creating non-toxic denim and clothing goes beyond a simple brand promise - it's the cornerstone of everything we do. We believe that fashion should be both stylish and safe, not just for the wearer, but for the planet and the people involved in making our products. Non-toxicity is an ongoing commitment. We are constantly researching and adopting new technologies and practices that allow us to improve our processes and products.
Here’s how we make that a reality:
- Using exclusively GOTS certified Organic Cotton
Unlike conventional cotton, organic cotton is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, which are harmful to both the environment and human health. At organsk, we only use GOTS certified organic cotton for all virgin cotton. By choosing GOTS certified organic cotton, we are ensured that our raw material is free from these harmful chemicals from the very beginning. The cotton plants are Non-GMO, the ground is toxic-free and it is given time to recover between harvests.
- Laser Technology instead of chemical dyes, chemical sprays etc.
Traditional denim production often involves toxic synthetic dyes and chemical sprays that can pollute water sources and harm aquatic life. At Organsk, we use laser and ozone technology to achieve the distressed look on our jeans.
We eliminate harmful chemicals and bleach using ozone water-free zero-discharge washing and laser finishing. Using these techniques, we minimize water usage by 100% and chemical usage by 90%.
- Water saving E-flow Processes
Our commitment to non-toxicity extends to our manufacturing washing processes. In washing process, we employ E-flow technology that minimizes water usage by 95%. This reduces our environmental footprint and helps conserve this vital resource.
- Avoiding Harmful Chemicals
There are around 8000 synthetic chemicals used in making clothes, from getting the materials to finishing the product. These chemicals include flame retardants, PFAs, lead, chromium (VI), phthalates, chlorine bleach, and more. Some of these chemicals can irritate the skin, cause cancer, or disrupt hormones.
Many denim and clothing brands use chemical treatments to achieve specific finishes, such as stone washing or distressing. These treatments involve toxic substances that can be harmful to both workers and consumers. At Organsk, we avoid these harmful chemicals, opting for innovative techniques like Atmos, Ozone, E-flow and Laser that achieve the same stylish results without the associated risks.
At organsk®, all our chemicals are approved by some of the highest possible standards within sustainability: EU Ecolabel + GOTS.
All organsk® jeans, denim and clothing is PFAs-Free, Phthalates-Free, Free of Azo Dyes and free of any known chemicals that can harm you and the environment.
4B. Elastane
Although the majority of our clothing is made from organic cotton, some styles also contain a touch of Elastane.
Elastane, also known as Spandex or Lycra, is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional stretchiness. It is often used in combination with other fibers to create stretchy clothing and is used in a variety of garments, including athletic wear, underwear, swimwear, and denim. Elastane is the only conventional fiber used in some organsk® jeans, and is added for comfort-stretch and flexibility.
Some people may experience allergic reactions to elastane/spandex. It can cause itching, swelling, and even breathing difficulties. Fortunately, elastane/spandex allergies are relatively rare. Nonetheless, it's crucial for people allergic to elastane to be mindful of the fabrics they buy and to consider alternative fabrics if necessary.
At organsk®, we keep the use of elastane at the bare minimum.
- Safe and Ethical Work Environment
We work with clothing and apparel factories that adhere to ILO guidelines, providing safe working conditions and fair wages.
- Transparency and Education
We believe in full transparency when it comes to our production processes. We provide detailed information about the materials we use and the steps we take to ensure non-toxicity. Additionally, we have blogs on our website that aim to educate our customers about the importance of non-toxic fashion, helping them make informed decisions that benefit their health and the environment.
- Continuous Improvement
Non-toxicity is an ongoing commitment. We are constantly researching and adopting new technologies and practices that allow us to improve our processes and products. Our goal is to set new standards in the industry for what it means to be truly non-toxic and sustainable.
At organsk®, we are dedicated to providing denim that is as safe as it is stylish. By using organic materials, natural dyes, and more eco-friendly manufacturing processes, we work towards products that are non-toxic from start to finish. Our ethical practices and commitment to transparency further reinforce our promise to you: when you choose Organsk, you're choosing denim that cares for your health, respects workers, and protects the planet.
