Collection: Organicon

Scheepjes Organicon was created, a vegan-friendly and sustainably produced yarn made of 100% organic cotton. We see more and more that companies opt for sustainable production methods. This provides several advantages. Organic farming is beneficial for water quality, the fertility of the land and energy consumption, while the organic cotton fiber is wonderfully soft. Organicon has the EN 71-3 quality mark, which means that the yarn is suitable for people, including babies and toddlers, with sensitive skin. Scheepjes Organicon is available in 21 light and fresh pastel shades, including some neutrals, all of which can be combined beautifully. The recommended needle size is 3.00mm. A ball of Scheepjes Organicon weighs 50 grams and has a running length of 170 meters (thickness fingering)

What makes Scheepjes Organicon environmentally friendly and sustainable?

Scheepjes Organicon is GOTS certified and therefore meets the strict requirements set for the production and processing process of organic clothing and textiles. This means that cotton cultivation is demonstrably organic and sustainable and that no artificial fertilizer is used. In this way, the fertility of the land can be permanently guaranteed. The dyes are also GOTS certified and received the highest sustainability score for textile production. Furthermore, Scheepjes Organicon's production uses a fully biological wastewater treatment facility, which means that the water used is recycled and reused in a safe manner. Finally, and just as important, Organicon is a vegan-friendly yarn. This is because no animal (by) products are involved in the production process. The same goes for the dyes used for this yarn. In short, Scheepjes Organicon is an excellent alternative for all environmentally conscious creatives.
