The Debbie Bliss eco collection is an exciting new development which she has been working towards for some time. These beautiful yarns are manufactured from organic cotton within an ecological and socially concious process through the bioRe textile chain, which integrates farmers, their families and the textile industry as equal parteners.
The bioRe Association carries out projects in training, teaching and health. The farmers receive agricultural advice and are supported on a long-term basis to develop their organic farming practices. The farmer's income increases considerably compared to conventional farming, there is no more damages to their health and the fertility of the soil improves.
All production is based on the principle of fairness, with equal partnerships, involvement and participation, humane working hours and conditions.
Organic means that toxic chemicals are replaced with harmless alternatives. The cotton is grown without the use of pesticides, chemical fertilizers or defoiliants and is harvested by hand.
