Are the towels made from organic cotton?

Our cotton is natural cotton, which is grown in Pakistan from defoliant-free plants and processed without dyes, chemicals and only peroxide-bleach. Most mechanically-picked cotton is sprayed with defoliants just before picking to make the leaves wilt and drop for an easier harvest.

True "Certified Organic" cotton must be grown in accordance with organic farming principles, and there are several stages that must be verified by a certifying authority. While our cotton is not Certified Organic, it is grown and processed using minimal chemicals. Our products are all Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certified, an international certification of environmentally-responsible manufacturing processes.
