Better Cotton

Cotton under an impact program or standard like Better Cotton make up <6% of global fibers, so the garments made from these materials are special. 
The cotton supply chain is super complex, changing hands multiple times from farm, yarn, fabric, garment, to brands.  Formed in 2005, Better Cotton is a non-profit, multistakeholder governance group with a robust set of principles and criteria focused on the beginning of the supply chain - at the farm. Setting standards for large, medium, and smallholder farms, it defines environmental, economic, and social requirements that must be met for producers to sell their cotton as Better Cotton.
