The Cotton Yarn Facility
Protecting the environment. Providing employment opportunities & good working conditions
- Supplier Story
- Organic cotton yarn
This cotton yarn supplier is located outside of Istanbul, Turkey, and spins the thread for another of our suppliers, creating a fully traceable Organic cotton supply chain.
Like many of our suppliers, they are a family business: four generations have owned and worked at the company; in fact, many employees are sons and daughters of former employees. Each day, everyone sits down to lunch together for a delicious meal prepared by an in-house cook. We can attest to the taste, JUST was lucky to join them for lunch.
This is how committed to sustainability this company is: their factory is surrounded by a lush forest. An environmental agency wanted to fine them for deforestation in building their factory. The company explained that yes, we actually planted those trees. This used to be a desert like empty land. The agency ended up giving them an award instead! Their product is of the highest quality -- you can tell in the cloud like fabric produced by our other supplier, who uses the thread they spin. - Supplier Photos
