Sustainable Threads: Eco-Friendly Fabrics at equalshuman
At equalshuman, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword; it’s woven into every stitch, fiber, and fabric we select. Our commitment to the environment and ethical practices means making intentional choices, starting right at the source: the materials we use. Our trusted fabric supplier from the Republic of Korea has provided us with eco-friendly, high-quality fabrics that carry globally recognized sustainability certifications, reflecting our unwavering dedication to both the planet and our customers.
Why Eco-Friendly Fabrics?
The fashion industry is one of the world’s largest contributors to environmental pollution, primarily due to the use of harmful chemicals, water waste, and synthetic fibers. By choosing eco-friendly fabrics, equalshuman aims to reduce our environmental footprint and promote healthier practices in fashion manufacturing. Our sustainable fabric selection is guided by two major global certifications: GOTS and OEKO-TEX®.
GOTS: A Benchmark for Organic Excellence
The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is recognized worldwide as the premier certification for organic fibers. It ensures that the fabrics we use are produced responsibly and sustainably, from the initial planting of crops to the final textile products. To achieve GOTS certification, textiles must contain at least 70% organic fibers and meet stringent ecological and social criteria throughout the entire supply chain.
By adhering to GOTS standards, equalshumans ensures our products are made without harmful chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, or toxic dyes. This practice protects ecosystems, water sources, agricultural communities, and the end-users who wear our clothing.
OEKO-TEX®: Trust Through Transparency
OEKO-TEX® certification sets another gold standard in responsible textile production. This globally recognized label assures consumers that every thread, button, and piece of fabric is tested for harmful substances. OEKO-TEX® textiles are verified as free from toxins, carcinogens, and allergens, thus safeguarding both environmental health and human safety.
Choosing OEKO-TEX® certified fabrics demonstrates our commitment to transparency and consumer trust because clothing should feel good in every way possible.
Organic Yarn: Nature’s Finest Fibers
One of our core fabric choices is certified organic yarn from South Korea. Unlike conventionally produced fibers, organic yarn is made from fibers grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or genetically modified organisms. This choice helps protect soil fertility, reduces water contamination, and promotes biodiversity. Organic yarn is soft, durable, breathable, and gentle on both the skin and the planet, making it an ideal choice for ethical fashion.
From Korea, With Care
Our sustainable fabrics are sourced responsibly from Korea, a nation known for innovative textiles and strict adherence to quality and eco-friendly standards. By carefully selecting suppliers who share our values and ethical guidelines, we ensure that every garment you wear from equalshuman tells a story of environmental responsibility, quality, and care.
Why This Matters
Eco-friendly fabrics are a fundamental step toward a sustainable future in fashion. By investing in materials certified by GOTS and OEKO-TEX®, we reinforce our commitment to a cleaner, healthier world. When you choose to wear equalshuman, you’re not just embracing sustainable fashion—you’re actively participating in a movement that values the environment, ethical production, and responsible consumption.
